A Drama of Reform by Benedict J Groeschel

A Drama of Reform is the story of the new order founded by Fr. Benedict Groeschel and seven other Capuchin friars, and of the first two decades of a reform in religious life begun in 1987. United in the desire to be authentic disciples of Jesus Christ and following in the footsteps of Saint Francis, they want to encourage the army of Christians of all denominations who are discouraged by the erosion of Gospel values in our culture.

This inspirational volume combines more than 100 dramatic photos from the interesting and varied aspects of their daily lives. Along with the wonderful photos, members of the two independent communities of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal and Franciscan Sisters of the Renewal provide short essays on their life, which will enable others to experience the earnestness and enthusiasm of this young and fervent group. More than one hundred sisters and friars from a dozen countries have come together with the common desire to follow the Gospel of Jesus Christ after the example of Saint Francis and the tradition of the Capuchin reform.

Well-known for their work with the poor and homeless in the South Bronx and other deprived areas, these Franciscans communicate a deep sense of the joy and love of those trying to be totally committed to living the Gospel in an increasingly de-Christianized world.

A priest for fifty years, FATHER BENEDICT J. GROESCHEL, C.F.R., is one of the founding members of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal. He is a psychologist, an internationally known speaker and a retreat master. His numerous books include Healing the Original Wound (Servant Books), Tears of God, The Virtue Driven Life, and After this Life. Father Groeschel can also be seen as host of the weekly EWTN program, Sunday Night Live with Father Benedict Groeschel.
