“The greatest gift you can give
to the Church and to the world is holiness".
In an age rife with conflict, inequality, and fear, hope risks being reduced to a fragile, unreliable sentiment. But for Giorgio La Pira, hope is a theological principle, rooted in Christ's resurrection and a historical project capable of guiding humanity's future. This volume brings together some of his most significant writings, accompanied by reflections from contemporary scholars. What emerges is a journey that, beginning with the interior, traverses the city, work and the economy, the Mediterranean and the communion of peoples, all the way to interreligious dialogue for the construction of peace. A book to continue to believe and hope in an inevitable brotherhood.
