Jesus, the Gift of Love by Jean Vanier
Not since Fulton Sheen's majestic A Life of Christ has a writer captured for his time the beauty, the power, and the holiness of Jesus. But more than this, Jean Vanier writes with a go-to-the-heart simplicity that makes the man Jesus come alive in all his humanity, revealing his immense goodness and his bountiful love for everyone he meets. This book is the story of Jesus as it is told in the four Gospels, brought together into one meditation. The author says that, Together they give a clear portrait of Jesus as he was and as he lived, a clear vision of his message. From his conception to his death and resurrection, we see a man manifestly sent by God to reveal God, to point to a way of universal love, of truth, of justice, and of peace.Jean Vanier is the founder of L'Arche, an international network of communities for persons with developmental impairments. He is the son of former governor general Georges Vanier. Being Human (the 1999 CBC Massey Lectures), Discovering Peace, Created for Happiness, Encountering the Other, and Befriending the Stranger are just a few of his publications. Jean resides in the French town of Trosly-Breuil.
