<div class="productDescriptionWrapper"> This book examines the central elements of Francis' vision of the Church as it sets out to preach the gospel to people of every nation and every walk of life. In four chapters, it examines the heart of his message and the focus of his vision for the future of Catholicism, Christianity, and the world. Central to that vision is his call to continue the new evangelization. He writes: &quot;Each individual Christian and every community is called to be an instrument of God for the liberation and promotion of the poor, and for enabling them to be fully a part of society&quot; (EG 187). The pope admits that neither he nor the Church has &quot;a monopoly on the interpretation of social realities or the proposal of solutions to contemporary problems&quot; (EG 184). He wishes, however, to contribute some constructive insights concerning our present situation. For Pope Francis, the joy of the gospel is simple: God wishes to live in our hearts. When we let God do so his Spirit dwells there, purging our imperfections and slowly divinizing us so that as free and faithful disciples we follow the way of the Lord Jesus. <div class="emptyClear"></div> </div>
Although Augustine's &quot;Confessions&quot; has been translated many times, it is not exaggeration to say that Sister Maria Boulding's translation is &quot;of a different level of excellence from practically anything else on the market&quot; (Rowan Williams, Bishop of Monmonth).
Contains ninety-four letters concerning the Latin Father of the Church, some from him and some to him. This book includes indexes.
COUNTERING RELIGIOUS EXTREMISM - CARLSON DAVID
Dorothy Day connected radical faith with doing radical deeds; beginning from her discovery of God in the Word when she was eight years old.
In this classic work Augustine is engaged in a personal quest; he is 'looking for God', and of course inviting his readers to join him in the search.

This collection of writings about Mary, the Mother of Jesus, by Chiara Lubich, the founder of the Focolare, not only reflects how this movement developed but also recounts the growth of teaching and devotion regarding Mary for more than half a century. From the beginning of the Movement in the 1940s, Chiara appreciated &quot;the desolate Mary&quot; as a model for Christian life. In the post Vatican II period her enthusiasm emerges for Mary as &quot;the model of the laity&quot; and &quot;the lay person par excellence.&quot; She also discovers Mary as the &quot;Model of the Gospel Revolution,&quot; plus &quot;Mary, Sign of Protest,&quot; and Mary in Ecumenical and Interreligious dialogue. Chiara is a fascinating woman whose varied writings are well worth reading.
