Come Meet Jesus: An Invitation from Pope Benedict XVI

The person of Jesusand our need to encounter him personallyis the common thread through all that Pope Benedict XVI has written and taught. As he once urged young people, Open, open wide the doors to Christand you will find true life.

In Come Meet Jesus: An Invitation from Pope Benedict XVI, Amy Welborn highlights the many ways in which the pope is inviting his listeners, both inside and outside the church, to discover the saving, healing, life-giving love of Jesus. As we listen with open minds and hearts to Pope Benedicts persistent and heartfelt invitation, we will be inspired to put friendship with Jesus at the center of our lives. And as the pope shows us, we can encounter Jesus in ourselves, in Scripture, in the liturgy, in prayer, and in everyday life.
