Balaam&;s Donkey is a series of daily reflections based on the homilies preached by Cistercian monk Michael Casey over his fifty years of priesthood. What remained of the original homilies was a large box full of index cards with a few talking points on each. From there, Casey has re-created the homilies and recast them into short reflections, arranged randomly for every day of the year. The range of topics discussed is broad and the approach taken differs with each reflection, most of them colored with a touch of Casey&;s whimsy and good humor.

Industry Reviews

"This is one of the most delightful, eclectic, and useful books that I have ever read. His content is substantive, written in an easy style, and spattered with Casey's bits of humor. The only downside I found in the book was that, if purchased by the monastic library, you might have to wait years to read it!"
