Advance Praise & Reviews

"A timely collection of meditations from one of the greatest laywomen of the twentieth century. The message of unity is needed today in an era of polarization and self-righteousness, but Chiara Lubich understands that more is needed than exhortations to be nice to one another. She puts forward a vision and a practice of uniting by rising above our selves, and letting God be our unity." -- William T. Cavanaugh, DePaul University
