The joy of the Gospel cover

The joy of the Gospel

by Pope Francis

"From a discussion of economic justice to a call for new decision-making roles for women in the Church, The Joy of the Gospel is thought provoking, wide-ranging, and challenging to every Catholic. Those who carefully read it, study it, and pray with it will be ready to take up, with the whole Church, this "new phase of evangelization, one marked by enthusiasm and vitalilty"--And, most especially, joy"--Publisher.
