Product Details
On Love is a book of homilies, most of which are previously unpublished, Joseph Ratzinger, now Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI. The title, On Love, addresses the theme he has celebrated, pondered, and witnessed by his life more than any other: love. For him, love is the vital nucleus of the Church and to serve Christ is above all a question of love: "Peter, do you love me? Feed my sheep" (Jn 21:15–17). On Love is a paperback book that has 160 pages and measures 5”W x 8”H.
Love is also the quest of every human being on the journey toward eternity. On Love beautifully states, "Christianity is a movement, a journey; it is not a theory, a sum total of doctrine; Christianity is life, it is a vital impetus that carries us toward true life. . . . Someone who has found love can say: I have found life." Arranged by the liturgical seasons of the Church year, the homilies included in On Love predate the author's pontificate. The earliest homilies date from 1970 while he was still a professor of theology. Thus, On Love traces the way Joseph Ratzinger has been enamored of the love of God throughout his years of serving the Church.
