About the book: The world groans and the Church stumbles.
Men fail to act and inspire.
To whom can we turn for an example?
George Cardinal Pell.
A white martyr with insights into the spirit of this age and the ongoing crisis in the Church. A skilled administrator and captivating preacher.
A celebration of a life lived against the world and for the Lord and His Church that brings together writings from the late Cardinal Pell and contributions from Oswald Cardinal Gracias, Reverend Robert A Sirico, Danny Casey, and George Weigel. (All texts in English, Italian, Spanish, and French).
At the time of his death, he was already older than 80 years of age and had retired from all his 'official' duties. Nevertheless, Cardinal Pell was fully engaged in the life of the Church, and his contributions were valuable. Indeed, the purifying effect of his unjust imprisonment gives to his thoughts a greater gravity and wider resonance. We should listen attentively to this white martyr's witness and reflections. - Oswald Cardinal Gracias
