Lists with This Book. There are one or two passages in Keenan's book in which he places so much emphasis on our responsibility for things that happen good or bad in our lives that I think this could cause real harm to someone who already is weighed down by self blame and self loathing. This is ironic as I think Keenan comes across as a genuinely kind and compassionate man of great faith and his main outlook would be the importance of finding joy and peace in whatever we encounter and not being submerged in blame and misery.

Qucid

In this world of stress and changing life situations, we are faced with struggles that we may not have had before. In addition, we are becoming more self aware of these struggles that we face. In response to that need, the bookshelves are stocked with a variety of self-help books ranging in complexity that address both the physical and mental states of mind.
In Good News for Bad Days, Father Keenan is able to provide insights into that part of us that we so often forget-our soul. As I listened to the audio version of his book, he reminded me that the soul is a central axis that radiates throughout our being. His book is particularly appealing because it offers SIMPLE techniques and philosophies to awaken and nourish the soul. In addition, he couples it with a nice blend of faith principles which are either forgotten or lost in our focus. This is truly an uplifting book which I listen to as I begin my day. It gives me the necessary reminder to keep a soul perspective as I approach the life and work situations that may confront me. I enjoyed Thomas Moore's Care of the Soul and this book compliments the thoughts he presents wonderfully; however, Father Keenan adds his own unique slant. I highly recommend this book. It provides hope, inspiration and a positive outlook in simple and achievable terms.

This is a truly helpful book. Father Keenan's compassion comes alive on these pages. You can feel his hand in yours as you read. It's been a fad for quite some time now to say that one is "into spirituality" or is "a spiritual person." But to completely understand spirituality, one must first realize the function of the soul in life. Soulfulness is the basis of all things spiritual, emotional, and physical. It is our very essence. And this guide will help you in your quest to make your life a soulful one. On a personal note: My family sustained the loss of my dear sister just weeks before the release of this book. It served as a comforting tool to all the members of my family during this difficult time. But whether you are hurting, searching, happy, or sad, Father Keenan's words will lead you to a better understanding of the very thing that gives us the vitality and strength that we so need to survive: the soul. Father Keenan taught me so much through this book that I have actually been able to use what I've learned to help others through loneliness, loss, and frustration. And it's been an absolute delight to share what I've learned with all of God's souls who have come into my life.

Good News for Bad Days - a great title for a book which gives such a deep look into the life of the author. Father Paul shows me in this book that it is possible to be fully human and fully in touch with God. In fact, to be fully human is to live a soulful - a soulfilled - life. It is rare these days to have someone share so much of their own struggles and joys of life. In all of the struggles, there is a lesson to be learned. That lesson is grounded in a deep faith in God. I only wished that Father Paul had written this book years ago!

I didn't finish the book yet because I keep going over some chapters that apply to my own spiritual journey. I can relate to so many things Fr. Pauls says. He is truly a gifted author and buying this book was no "coincidence." I was looking for another book, but this came into my hand because God wanted me to read Fr. Paul's words. Thank you Father Paul for sharing your insights with us. We are on this journey together.

Brilliant, inspiring, filled with with and charm. Paul Keenan's love of life and his unfailingly positive approach are seen on each page. Written in Paul's warm and caring style, Good News for Bad Days strikes exactly the right note for those times that we feel upset or discouraged.
This is a thoroughly inspiring and motivating book, a must read for anybody who has ever had a bad day -- and who hasn't?

"Good News for Bad Days" is masterfully composed, flawless in its writing and wise in its message. For what it is -- a guide to the use of the spirit in coping with the adversities of life -- it's perfection. If that's your interest, you'll enjoy it and perhaps even be a better person for having read it.

More than chicken soup, Fr. Keenan's book is beef stew for the soul... something substantial to sink your teeth into. As a midlife guy who sometimes feels trapped by life and the choices I've made, this book helps me see the good things and many blessings in my life and to set my sails to better use the gifts that God has given me. It also gives me a much-sought-after sense of love and peace. Easy-to-read, and not just for Catholics, it leaves you with much to think about. Even non-religious people must seek their soul. Let Fr. Keenan help you find yours.
