This is the latest book written by the prelate of Opus Dei. It’s a collection of 120 short meditations to help cultivate a personal relationship with God, which is a conversation with Jesus Christ that can happen not only in a church but while walking down the street, driving or waiting for the bus.

“We must place ourselves in the Gospel, as St. Josemaría would say, ‘as one of the characters,’ which isn’t simply about imagining, but about really reading the Word of God, which is the Gospel, as if addressed to each one of us, which it is.”
Fernando Ocáriz has included short reflections for all sorts of people.
Even just the titles are thought-provoking, like “God in my home,” “Joining hands with all,” “Make the world more humane,” and “A question from the Lord.”
The meditations use phrases and episodes from the Gospel to help face the challenges and appreciate the wonders of daily life.

“This interior silence isn’t meant to be limited solely to the individual. It’s a silence that begins within the person and then spreads outward. It’s open to everything the Lord wants to place in each person’s soul, which then fuels a desire to serve others, to work, etc.”
The book “In the Light of the Gospel” is a strong dose of hope to help face the challenges of our time and look to the future with optimism.
