Book Synopsis

The history of spirituality has never seen a way to God like this one. Till now all forms of spiritual growth have focused on the individuals discovery of the God who fascinates the human heart. But the spirituality that Chiara Lubich and her companions have discovered is a new way, a spirituality of communion, as described by John Paul II. No longer is the spiritual life about withdrawing from other people, nor just about serving them. It is about living with them in unity, growing together in God.
