Description
This Czech-language book presents Dom Samuel, who was born in France in 1954 into a family related to writer Henri Pourrat. After many years in theatre, he entered the Trappist monastery of Notre-Dame de Sept-Fons as a novice in 1983, where Father Nicholas was novice master. Ordained a priest in 1990, he was later appointed prior by Abbot Patrick. In 2002, he became one of the founders of the Monastery of Our Lady in Nový Dvůr in the Diocese of Plzeň, serving as its prior from 2004. When the monastery was elevated to an abbey in 2011, he was elected its abbot. His books published in Czech include On a Fiery Chariot, Wholeheartedly: Reflections on the Future of Christianity in Our World, Face to Face with God, Like a Consuming Fire: A Monk’s Discourse on Showing Mercy, and Sons of Light in a Time of Trial: A Monk’s Discourse on Unity in Adversity. He also edited Apophthegmata 1983–1990 by Father Jerome and several other authors.
