In his first official book published as Pope, in celebration of his Jubilee of Mercy, Pope Francis here addresses all humanity in an intimate and personal dialogue. At the center of this book is the subject closest to his heart - mercy, which has long been the cornerstone of his faith and is now the central teaching of his papacy. These words resonate with a desire to reach all those souls who are looking for meaning in life, a road to peace and reconciliation, and the healing of physical and spiritual wounds.

Following the exercises in this audiobook, you'll discover how mindfulness can help you be more present to everything in your life from a trip to the grocery store or relaxing with friends to listening more attentively to a homily.

In Reasons to Believe, Scott Hahn, a convert to Catholicism, explains the "how and why" of the Catholic faith - drawing from Scripture, his own struggles, and those of other converts, as well as from everyday life and even natural science. Hahn shows that reason and revelation, as well as nature and the supernatural, are not opposed to one another; rather, they offer complementary evidence that God exists. He is someone, and He has a personality, a personal style, that is discernable and knowable.

As Archbishop of Buenos Aires, Pope Francis encouraged devotion to "Our Lady, Undoer of Knots". On the first day after his election to the papacy, he visited the Basilica of St. Mary Major in Rome to place flowers on the altar and pray for Mary's help and protection. Since that day he has continued to shine a light on the woman he calls "the first pilgrim" and "the perfect disciple".

When Jorge Bergoglio was a young Jesuit, he wrote a statement of his personal beliefs. It began, “I want to believe in God the Father who loves me like a child, and in Jesus, the Lord who infused my life with His Spirit, to make me smile and so carry me to the eternal Kingdom of life.” The elements of this credo inspired the selection and arrangement of the reflections gathered here: Pope Francis’s thoughts on love for God and each other and, most importantly, God’s love for us. Here are his most intimate thoughts about the purpose and promise of love.

Fr. Robert Barron's comprehensive work goes straight to the core of the Catholic faith. He first examines the foundations of Christ's incarnation, life and ministry, and then works through the essentials of the Catholic tradition: from sacraments, worship and prayer, to Mary and the saints, and on to salvation, heaven and hell. Throughout this epic journey, Fr. Barron uses art, literature, personal stories, Scripture, theology, philosophy and history to present a complete picture of the Church to the world.

Publisher's Summary
Pope Francis met with French reporter and sociologist Dominique Wolton for an unprecedented series of 12 fascinating and timely conversations - open dialogues revolving around the political, cultural, and religious issues dominating communication and conflict around the world - now published in A Future of Faith: The Path of Change in Politics and Society.
Inspiring and insightful, Pope Francis’ views on immigration, poverty, diversity, globalization, and more are born from his Christian faith and basic humanity. Meeting the challenges of the 21st century requires compassion for those in need, a willingness to work toward common goals without domineering other cultures, and the ability to negotiate with trust, respect, and dignity. And for the first time, Pope Francis shares insights into his own personality and the formation of his faith, including his experience with psychotherapy and some of the most important women in his upbringing.
Controversial, bold, personal, and illuminating, A Future of Faith will serve to be essential listening for not only Catholics but those who want to see how the “people’s pope” confronts the social injustices of the world with the foresight to create positive change.

Not a Pope Francis Treatise
I listened to a third of this book before returning. I was hoping for more of a treatise from Pope Francis, or a book similar in quality to those published by Pope Benedict XVI. This book is a series of short interviews with the Pope and the answers were given as either the short answer, or the answer is deferred for more consideration. Unfortunately, more is learned about the interviewer than the Pope.

Beautiful, direct and deeply insightful. But ...
Beautiful, direct and deeply insightful. But the rich content can be squelched by a narrator with a distractingly severe case of voice fry.
