The wisdom of this collection is remarkable. It is mystical and practical at the same time. Lubich says, ‘We can’t go to God alone, but we must go to him with our brothers and sisters, since he is the Father of us all.’ Each phrase from Lubich offers a new colour for the palette we use to love our neighbour, who is not an obstacle between us and God but a sacred archway through whom we come into God’s presence, and through whom God comes to us. Lubich sends us forth with a heart ready to love as Jesus loved.

Description
The wisdom of this collection is remarkable. It is mystical and practical at the same time. Lubich says, ‘We can’t go to God alone, but we must go to him with our brothers and sisters, since he is the Father of us all.’ Bill Hartnett’s foreword sets up the book beautifully, noting that each aspect of the spirituality of unity insists upon the presence of our neighbour. The neighbour is never an obstacle between the twosome of me and God but a sacred ‘archway’ through whom I come into God’s presence, and through whom God comes to me. Indeed, the neighbour is a necessity if we are to have mutual love, the profound love that is receptive to the grace of unity.
Each phrase from Lubich offers a new colour for the palette you use to love your neighbour, and you’ll find that the book sends you forth with a heart ready to love as Jesus loved.
