THE LIGHT OF FAITH - LUMEN FIDEI
AUTHOR: Pope Francis. 64 pgs. PB
Pope Francis' first encyclical illuminates the urgent need in todays secularized culture to reclaim faith as the guiding light to understanding human existence. On a spectrum from past to present whereby faith is understood as both hearing and seeing, faith is considered in light of idolatry, reason, science, knowledge, truth, love, and theology. Showing us how we can enhance the richness of our human relations within the family and society, Pope Francis sets us on the luminous path to creating a constellation of faith.
