Paul Martin To Present Blessed Memorial: Imaginings From Lectio Divina At L.A. Times Festival Of Books 2025
(MENAFN- EIN Presswire)
Too secular for church, yet too spiritual for polite conversation, "Blessed Memorial" weaves biblical parables into contemporary life experiences. The novel follows Thomas Strongtree, a retired woodworker who stumbles upon a collection of old police arrest records from the 1970s, '80s, and '90s. Struck by curiosity, he sets out to find these individuals-now adults-to hear their life stories. Through their experiences, the novel draws compelling connections between modern struggles and biblical lessons.
As Strongtree's journey unfolds, he finds himself entangled in legal and ethical dilemmas, pushing him to rely on wisdom gained from a police patrolman who, in many ways, mirrors the rich young man from the Bible. The novel offers an insightful meditation on regret, redemption, and the lifelong search for meaning.
Martin, a Third Order Franciscan, has spent years listening to God through Lectio Divina and Ignatian meditation. His storytelling is informed by a lifetime of hands-on experience-restoring furniture, fixing bicycles, and assisting hospice patients. His approach highlights that divine wisdom is accessible to all, regardless of background.
Festival attendees can visit Booth #182 to explore "Blessed Memorial," engage in discussions on faith and personal transformation, and meet Paul Martin.
