NEW BOOK 2020 - Perfect for Lenten Reflection!
Desert Dangers and Delights:
Stories, Teachings and Sources
The spirituality and lives of the desert fathers and mothers are often seen as the beginning and end of Christian monastic life. Their stories and messages inspire not only the most devout Christians but also the “nones” and the “dones.” In Desert Dangers and Delights John Michael Talbot reflects on his experience as a spiritual father and a popularizer of Catholic Christian spirituality through his music and teaching. He uses his own stories, Scripture, and the stories and sayings of the desert fathers and mothers to show a radically alternative way of living and thinking in Christ. With questions for reflection at the end of each chapter, this book will aid all readers, from experienced monastics to those just beginning a spiritual journey with Christ.

Francis of Assisi's Sermon on the Mount:
Lessons from the Admonitions
Talbot applies the timeless words of St. Francis to our troubled times. In the United States and across the world, we are experiencing polarization, anger, and violence. But God is still in control, and it is important to dig deep into our Christian heritage in a way that speaks to all people. St. Francis is one of the great saints who somehow reaches across all divides, touches hearts and souls, and brings spiritual peace.

Billy Ray Hearn, Founder of Capitol Christian Music Group
I first saw John Michael Talbot in concert 37 years ago. It was truly a life-changing experience. And I was able to see him LIVE again. I truly believe God is using JMT in new and powerful ways... RIGHT NOW. Go and see for yourself. This is a rare and unique time to see a rare and unique musical talent - and a true minister of the gospel. A Troubadour for the Lord!
Tom Booth Dove / Grammy Award Nominated Recording Artist / Oregon Catholic Press
I’ve known John Michael for more years than I’d like to remember. (I’m old). I’ve spent weeks with him on the road, and seen him deal with all kinds of high pressure situations, both onstage and off.
John’s heart has always revealed the love and compassion of Christ. His music is uniquely his own and has profoundly ministered to tens, if not hundreds of thousands over the years, maybe even millions. Barry McGuire - Pop Music ICON, "Eve of Destruction"
