We live in apocalyptic times: secularization, persecution, and atheism abound. In the history of the Church, the faithful relied on councils to unify and help them weather life’s fierce trials. But what recourse do we have when the synods themselves begin sparking confusion and discord?

Cardinal Joseph Zen of Hong Kong was formed during the “wind of Pentecost” surrounding the Second Vatican Council and taught theology and philosophy in seminaries for more than fifty years. In these pages, collected from His Eminence’s homilies, pastoral letters, and addresses, Cardinal Zen breaks open the Gospels and Sacred Tradition to help you remain steadfast in the true Faith and enliven your personal relationship with our Lord.

These wise teachings will safeguard you and provide the spiritual medicine and “rich nutrition” need for fruitful daily living. Cardinal Zen reveals how to transmit the Faith with vitality and love to every generation — even from your own home. Through his insights, drawn from extraordinary real-life experience, you will also glean:

  • Three indispensable elements of the Church that lead directly to Christ
  • The dangers of the Synod on Synodality
  • The “great grace” God has given us and how you can receive it 
  • Surefire ways to “test the spirit” and discern the truth
  • How clergy can embody the Good Shepherd
  • How to love and worship God above all and grow in confidence over fear

Regardless of where you are on your faith journey, Cardinal Zen reminds you: “Jesus has crazily fallen in love with you with all His heart, has dedicated Himself to you, and will not give up on you.” As you encounter Christ’s transformative presence in your life, you will be empowered with the courage to invite others to loving union with Him.
