He and I

In this timeless spiritual classic, share in the profound and touching experience of Gabrielle Bossis—a French nurse and playwright in the early twentieth century—as she hears the inner voice of Jesus in the core of her being.

It was not until age 62, while traveling to Canada aboard the Ile de France, that Gabrielle began a dialogue with this inner voice. From then until two weeks before her death in 1950, the voice of Jesus summoned her not only in church and during prayer, but amidst the hustle and bustle of modern life. From flying on an airplane to riding the metro during rush hour in Paris, from walking through the crowds of busy city streets to performing on a theatrical stage, Gabrielle encountered Jesus. Even when she contemplated her innermost thoughts and feelings, Jesus conversed with her.

Recorded in her diary from 1936 to 1950, their tender exchanges capture Gabrielle’s transformative spiritual journey as her doubt evolves into confidence. But they also capture Jesus’ enduring presence in our daily lives, his insistence on serving others with kindness, and his encompassing love for humanity, showing that you, too, can experience an intimacy with Christ.
