Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI is widely recognized as one of the most
brilliant theologians and spiritual leaders of our age. As pope he
authored the best-selling Jesus of Nazareth; and prior to his
pontificate, he wrote many influential books that continue to
remain important for the contemporary Church, including
Introduction to Christianity and The Spirit of the Liturgy.
Robert Cardinal Sarah was born in Guinea, West Africa. Made an
archbishop by Pope John Paul II and a cardinal by Pope Benedict
XVI, he was named the prefect of the Congregation for Divine
Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments by Pope Francis in
2014. He is the author of God or Nothing, The Power of Silence, and
The Day Is Now Far Spent.
Benedict XVI and Cardinal Sarah have written the best kind of food for the Catholic soul: concise, elegantly readable, rich in substance, and passionately pastoral in its message. Don't be fooled by its brevity: This is an immensely important book not just for priests, but for laypeople committed to sustaining and renewing the life of the Church they love.+Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap., Archbishop of Philadelphia
