Should we battle a plural and relativistic society by raising
barriers and walls, or should we accept the opportunity to announce
the Gospel in a new way? This is the challenge Christians are
facing today. In an extended interview with Vatican expert Andrea
Tornielli, Julian Carron examines the historical moment we are
living through in order to revive the essential core of Christian
faith. Starting from the realization that the world is experiencing
an evolution in which the difficulty of finding shared values and
natural morality makes sincere dialogue between believers and
non-believers challenging, Carron reflects on the possibility of
communicating the essence of the Christian faith in a form that can
inspire interest in modern times. Addressing the central questions
concerning the announcement of Christian faith in today's less
regimented society, Where Is God? discovers and rediscovers the
contents of Christianity and asks how they can be witnessed again
in a society that is not yet post-Christian, but potentially headed
in that direction.

Father Luigi Giussani engaged tirelessly in educational initiatives
throughout the course of his life. Much of his thought was
communicated through the richness and rhythm of oral discourse,
preserved as audio and video recordings in the archive of the
Fraternity of Communion and Liberation in Milan. This volume
presents the last three spiritual exercises of the Fraternity of
Communion and Liberation, drawing from the transcripts of these
recordings. In these exercises Giussani investigates the rise of
ethics and the decline of ontology that have accompanied modernity
and the spread of rationalism. Bearing up against old age and
illness, he resisted the urge to withdraw, instead finding new
avenues of communication and the technological means to reach all
corners of the movement. To Give One's Life for the Work of Another
explores the nature of God, the powerful human experience of
self-awareness, and the fundamental components of Christianity, in
the unmistakable voice of a consummate teacher. At a time when
young people are abandoning the church and questioning the value of
faith, Father Giussani's method of judging and verifying
Christianity as an experience is a timeless intervention.
