Gospel in Action: A New Evangelization Day by Day (Contemporary Spirituality)

How do people know you are a Christian? We are evangelized by the living example of others. Gospel in Action is a blend of spiritual advice from the long tradition of the Church with modern examples of how that advice is lived out in today's world. After each excerpt from a saint, an encyclical, or a spiritual leader, you have a story from an ordinary person making choices in the course of ordinary events - bartending, teaching at a university, working as a nurse, as a priest in a parish, among school friends, in competitive business environments, at the neighborhood block party. But, since these people make choices based on their desire to put the gospel into action, their choices are anything but ordinary. The result is a colorful mosaic of the communion of saints - of both timeless and timely examples of how small choices rooted in Love evangelize the world around us.
