The Apostles

Mehr zum Buch

Apostolic consciousness is the central theme explored through Cardinal Martini's reflections, stemming from a retreat for seminarians. He emphasizes that Christians are not merely self-driven individuals but are 'sent' by God to fulfill a divine purpose. By following the examples of Apostles Peter and Paul, believers are encouraged to embrace the joy of responding to God's call, rather than pursuing personal agendas. This perspective fosters a deeper understanding of their mission in the world, aligning with the mandate given to Christ by the Father.
