It’s a great book for a group - readable, provocative yet nuanced. Short, too! One gift I carry away: that my primary orientation should be towards listening. That God is eternal newness who speaks in silence. We need to cultivate this silence AND community. Without community we get trapped on our heads, essentially. We learn love in silence and in community. Together. ( ) no reviews | add a review

Rejoice and Be Glad (Gaudete et Exsulatate), Pope Francis' new apostolic exhortation, is both challenging and encouraging. Challenging because it's a call to holiness-and encouraging because no matter who you are, holiness is possible! The Pope invites each of us to a new way of living: seeing the dignity of each human being, experiencing God's presence in our world, and being live out the fullness of what it means to be holy and happy in our mission as Disciples of Christ. Don't settle for a bland and mediocre experience of Christianity-here is a roadmap for practical holiness in today's world that will transform you and make a difference in the lives of those around you.
