by Dan Burke

The Better Part

Dear Friends – Just in case you were out on vacation and missed it – here it is again with a significant correction (sorry for those who have already seen this) – please help us spread the word!

The Better PartI am very excited to provide you with an update on one of the best prayer resources available today, and published by Catholic Spiritual Direction in several new formats including a new iPhone App pictured here!

The Better Part is a book authored by Father John Bartunek. As many of you know, Father John allows us to publish one meditation unit a week (out of the 303 from the book) every Wednesday. He is also the author of our most popular question and answer posts that occur on most Mondays. We are excited to announce a few new developments with The Better Part. The Better Part is now available in:

  • A Spanish Edition
  • A Kindle Edition
  • An Incredible New iPhone App

If you already have the book, please spread the word by forwarding this post to your friends and family!
