Night Conversation with Cardinal Martini - The Relevance of the Church for Tomorrow

Klappentext Carlo M. Martini was cardinal of the largest diocese in the world, a scholar, and one of the most renowned men of the church. Georg Sporschill has worked in prisons and lived with drug-addicted street children in Romania and Moldavia. The two Jesuits met in Jerusalem and became firends: two worlds, one faith--and a passionate search for ways in which the message of Jesus of Nazareth can still be effective for tomorrow. In a series of conversations they ask what faith can mean for life, what future young people have in the church, and what must be changed so that Crhistianity itself has a future. The questions from young people are the catalyst for deep thought. Is the future only dark? Where are the rays of light on the horizon? What would Jesus say today? Zusammenfassung These conversations that took place in Jerusalem give rise to both doubt and hope. The result is a fascinating! personal book that asks what role Christianity might play for a humane future and addresses the question of religious faith in a wealthy society saturated with goods and without taboos.
