Overview

On June 9, 1979, when Pope John Paul II used the expression new evangelization in the sanctuary of Mogila in Nowa Huta, Krakow, he may not have foreseen the great movement that he was setting into motion. This Compendium on the New Evangelization conveniently documents the history of the new evangelization in one volume. It begins with the recognition and affirmation of the missionary need in the early parts of the twentieth century, beginning with Pope Pius XII, Pope John XIII, and the writings of the Second Vatican Council. It continues with the teachings of Pope Paul VI and Pope John Paul I. It then follows Pope John Paul II's call for the re-Christianization of culture and Pope Benedict XVI's teachings. This pastoral resource will encourage the faithful to express the Gospel to a contemporary culture alienated from its Christian roots. Each chapter of this invaluable guide has insightful textual introductions and helpful source documentation endnotes. The index of themes will further guide the reader's exploration of this compendium.
