Discovering the human person

A longtime friend and student of the late Pope John Paul II, Stanisław Grygiel reflects here on the life and thought of this extraordinary pope, giving new insight into his character and his vision of beauty as the path that leads us to God. More than simply biographical information about Pope John Paul II--who was Bishop Karol Wojtyła before he became pope--or a dry academic analysis of his teaching, Discovering the Human Person derives from Grygiel's extensive personal conversations with Wojtyła and offers a new, inside perspective on the pope's thought.
