The Cross and the Crisis

Meer over het boek

Fulton J. Sheen explores the moral and religious crises of modernity, arguing that society's distress stems from a fear of confronting the cross of Jesus Christ. He suggests that this avoidance leads to a loss of traditional ideals and a misguided pursuit of new ones. Using the Parable of the Prodigal Son, Sheen emphasizes that the only remedy for contemporary struggles lies in embracing the grace offered through Christ's sacrifice on Calvary, which he believes can heal the fractures in every aspect of human life.
