(More customer reviews)I have not read the entire book as this is not a book I can truly understand in a single night of reading. I am reading this as a way to return to a path in which Christ walks beside me, not behind me.
With gentleness, kindness, and love, I am reminded of those lessons I had been taught since I was a child. There was a minister who taught us lessons from the life of Christ when we were children. He did not lecture, but had us sit at his feet as he told the stories of Jesus, his disciples, and all that the Son had done for us. For the first time ever, I learned that Jesus was a child, too, and it was this that brought me closer to him.
In reading these essays, I feel child-like again, only this time I am seated at Logospilgrim's feet as she reminds me that what I was taught as a child, still holds true now that I am an adult.
The reader is taken through the life of Professor Severus Snape following in the wake of the Quiet Professor's robes as she illustrates with gentle words what truth one might learn from an ex-Death Eater, a spy, a man who loved and was redeemed.
This will be a book I shall never let go, as it is a treasure.

The flawed master: lessons Professor Snape taught meProfessor Severus Snape, a role model? Could the bitter, sarcastic and harsh man be a good teacher? Could he be worthy of imitation? In her mystical essays, Logospilgrim proposes that he is. Although Professor Snape frequently chose to behave in a manner that was harmful to him and those around him, the author believes that his virtue outweighed his weaknesses, and that both his virtue and weaknesses are a source of wisdom and consolation to those who are progressing along the path of devotion. He is, indeed, a symbol of true faith.
