The Joy of Love

Amoris Laetitia, Pope Francis’ highly anticipated post-synodal apostolic exhortation on the gifts and challenges of family life, is the conclusion of a two-year synod process discussing both the beauty and challenges of family life today.

In this plain-English study guide, acclaimed scholar and theologian Bill Huebsch makes Pope Francis’ message even more accessible, with paraphrased summaries of each article, and prayerful discussion and reflection questions that can help each of us see how Francis’ words apply to our own lives.

Perfect for small groups or individual study, this easy-to-use guide can help all believers understand, celebrate, and live Francis’ inspirational message and to realize the depths of the riches possible in marriage and family life.

Quote: “The spirituality of family love is made up of thousands of small but real gestures. In that variety of gifts and encounters which deepen communion, God has his dwelling place.”
