Beschreibung
Is a Christian's life merely about constantly anxiously checking what is allowed, what is forbidden, and what is not recommended? Or does the message of the gospel, and the life that stems from it, consist of something more important? Adrien Candiard, a French Dominican living in Cairo, draws inspiration in his acclaimed book from the shortest biblical book, the letter of the Apostle Paul to Philemon, in which he pleads for the escaped slave Onesimus. The epistle serves as a basis for the author’s entirely relevant, clear, and yet profound reflections on Christian freedom, conscience, and the calling to a demanding but authentic and fulfilled life in the Holy Spirit. The dilemmas experienced by Paul, Philemon, and Onesimus are also dilemmas of the modern person. The book received the 2019 Prize for Inner Freedom in France.
