Gospel in Action

Feb 19, 2013

A New Evangelization Day by Day. Gary Brandl and Tom Ess, OFM, Editors

With an Introduction by Brendan Leahy How do people know you are a Christian? We are evangelized by the living example of others. Gospel in Action tells the stories of ordinary people making choices in the course of ordinary events – bartending, teaching at a university, working as a nurse, as a priest in a parish, among school friends, in competitive business environments, at the neighborhood block party. But, since these people make choices based on their desire to put the gospel into action, their choices have unique effects on those around them. The result is a colorful mosaic of the communion of saints – of both timeless and timely examples of how small choices rooted in God-Love evangelize the world around us. Orders: New City Press (NY)
