“There are many priests, religious men and women, who do not know how to listen. I ask myself: If you do not know how to listen to your brother or sister who is near you, how are you going to listen to God who is not directly in front of you?

Consecrated persons must learn the art of dialogue and common discernment. We should practice the ‘apostolate of listening’. Knowing how to listen is fundamental.”

– Pope Francis

A book interview in which Francis appears as Peter confirming his brothers (in this case, his consecrated brothers, religious men and women). A must reading for consecrated life in these times. The book addresses multiple themes related to the consecrated life that also have repercussions throughout the Church. Therefore, it is not a book only for religious life, but it can of general interest to all believers. Translated into ten languages, the interview will be of great international impact. Highly recommended.
