An exotic on this earth

The audiobook of the well-known Salesian priest and educator, "shepherd of the underground", is a journey in the footsteps of God's mercy on this earth. The short stories are narrated by the author himself and accompanied by his own music. Two worlds meet in them: the world of Heryán's priestly everyday life, filled with encounters with people from different strata of society, but mostly from its margins, and the world of biblical messages and parables. They bring rays of understanding and meaning to our present, but they also hold up a mirror to our pride and selfishness. Heryán shows how the world is filled with God's mercy, which invites us at every moment to change our thinking and let it permeate us. The individual chapter-stories of the book impress with the immediacy and honesty with which they view the current events around us in God's perspective, and deepen the desire for conversion of heart.
