Rejoice and be Glad: On the Call to Holiness in Today’s World, The Study Edition.

By Pope Francis, Preface by Catherine Clifford, Foreword by Massimo Faggioli. 123p. $9.95

This study edition has several advantages over those of our competitors-first, we did it. Second, the foreword from Dr. Massimo Faggioli of Villanova places this exhortation in the context of the Magesteria of Pope Francis and the Preface, by Dr. Catherine Clifford of St. Paul’s Ottawa, looks at this letter as an extension of the universal call to holiness found in Vatican 2.  Third, the appendix to the book contains a cliff-notes-like summary of each section as well as discussion questions suited for individual and group reflection.   Spiritual directors and Landings2 leaders pay particular attention!
