A Passionate Adventure: Living the Catholic Faith Today offers a wonderful opportunity for English-speaking readers to learn more about the Servant of God Albino Luciani, Pope John Paul I, the short-lived and too little remembered Pope, whose smile and warmth are echoed again in Pope Francis.
Along with a short biography, the book contains a large selection of English translations of Luciani’s sermons, talks and articles on the faith from 1959 to 1978, the time when he was Bishop of Vittorio Veneto and Patriarch of Venice.
In a vivid and original style, the future Pope offers his reflections on the first Year of Faith in 1967-68, along with sermons and articles on the mysteries of Catholic belief such as the Incarnation and Redemption, the Eucharist, the cross, death and eternal life. He also speaks of evangelization and catechesis, birth control and abortion, faith and science, pluralism in the Church in the post-Vatican II world, ecumenism, prayer, devotion to Our Lady, and above all, becoming saints. He shows how living the faith each day is a passionate adventure for someone in love with God.
