In 2005, Father Julián Carrón became the leader of the global
ecclesial movement Communion and Liberation, following the death of
the movement's founder, Father Luigi Giussani. Disarming Beauty is
the English translation of an engaging and thought-provoking
collection of essays by one of the principal Catholic leaders and
intellectuals in the world today. Adapted from talks given by Fr.
Carrón, these essays have been thoroughly reworked by the author
to offer an organic presentation of a decade-long journey. They
present the content of his elaboration of the gospel message in
light of the tradition of Fr. Giussani, the teachings of the popes,
and the urgent needs of contemporary people. Carrón offers a broad
diagnosis of challenges in society and then introduces their
implications in contexts such as families, schools, workplaces, and
political communities. In a dialogue with his listeners, he
inspires and encourages them to lay out a new path for the Catholic
church and the world. Throughout his essays, Carrón addresses the
most pressing questions facing theologians today and provides
insights that will interest everyone, from the most devout to the
firm nonbeliever. Grappling with the interaction of Christian faith
and modern culture, Carrón treats in very real and concrete ways
what is essential to maintaining and developing Christian faith,
and he invites an ongoing conversation about the meaning of faith,
truth, and freedom.
