'Come, Lord Jesus!' (Rev. 22:20)
This book is a ruthless excursion into the heart of Christian love. At first glance its message is simple but in the end its pages are seen to contain a statement of Christian life so demanding that the reader finds himself exposed in all his or her failure to meet the call of Christ. To all those who think that they can reach God by running faster Carretto offers a challenge. It is a challenge which he believes to be the key to the way to revitalise and reinvigorate the lives of Christians. The challenge is to call love, silence, poverty and faith.
