The Joy of the Gospel is a passionate call for every Christian to be constantly ready to bring the love of Jesus to others. In this apostolic exhortation, Pope Francis responds to the suggestions of the 2012 Synod of Bishops on the New Evangelization by outlining a roadmap for the Churchs pastoral mission and work in the world. He envisions a Church of Spirit-filled evangelizers who exude joy and care for Gods people, especially the poor. Instead of retreating into our own security, he says, we must not be afraid to have our shoes get soiled by the mud of the street. Pope Francis warns against spiritual worldliness, disunity, and a spirit of pessimism or defeatism.Paperback 222 pages
