The Universal Brother

Charles de Foucauld Speaks to Us Today

De: Little Sister Kathleen of Jesus

Narrado por: Little Sister Kathleen of Jesus

Thirty-five years of following in the footsteps of Charles de Foucauld color little sister Kathleen’s portrayal of the man and his message.

Rather than relying too heavily on Charles de Foucauld's spiritual writings, little sister Kathleen draws on fresh material taken from his correspondence and diaries to set out his legacy for those who live in the deserts of the modern world, reminding us that at the heart of the Christian adventure is friendship with Jesus of Nazareth.

Anchoring his spiritual life in the home of Nazareth, Charles discovered that being Jesus’s little brother meant becoming a brother to the least and the most forsaken - a universal brother.

Inspiring

So concise, yet so profound.
It has made such an impression on me.
I wish it could be longer.
