A Man to Move Hearts, A Life of Paul Murphy, MJ
This book about Paul Murphy is written by Stephen Ryan, MJ and Joanna Bogle – the co-author of “A Heart for Europe”, the life of Emperor Karl of Austria who was recently beatified. She says about the book:
“When I was asked to write a short booklet about Paul Murphy, one of the early members of Miles Jesu in America, I accepted because I thought it might be interesting and that I could produce a neat professional job. What I was not expecting was that I would be touched by Paul’s story – a simple and moving example of a life lived with generosity and, at the end, with great courage.”
Find out why Paul Murphy is an inspiration to live a deeper Christian life and an outstanding role model for today’s young people... Paperback, 68 pages. $9.00
