Mysticism and Witness in Koinonia

More about the book

The book explores the profound commitment of two distinct Catholic communities: Trappists, who embody a contemplative life in Africa, and Jesuits, who engage actively in Latin America. Despite their differing approaches, both groups face violent deaths rooted in secular issues. Their missions emphasize love, dialogue, and justice for the marginalized, showcasing how religious dedication can address contemporary societal challenges. By embracing otherness and vulnerability, they inspire a radical interpretation of the gospel that encourages openness and response to global injustices.
