Download or read book Charles de Foucauld written by Jean-Jacques Antier and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2022-03-23 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "My Father, I put myself in your hands", wrote Charles de Foucauld in his journal. "Whatever you make of me, I thank you, I am ready for everything, I accept everything, I thank you for everything." When he was killed by bandits in 1916, the French aristocrat-turned-monk was virtually unknown. Over the course of a century, however, the radiance of Foucauld's hidden life has spread more and more, and the Church now recognizes him as a saint. His youth and early adulthood read like a novel—the loss of his parents; his education in Paris, where he abandoned the faith of his childhood; his military career in French Algeria; and his exploration of Morocco. After a conversion at the age of twenty-eight, Foucauld was charged with a desire to surrender himself completely to God, leading him eventually to a life of prayer in the Algerian desert. There he devoted himself to adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and charity toward his Muslim neighbors—even to the point of death. Jean-Jacques Antier describes Foucauld's dramatic, inspiring life in a vivid narrative style. He based his biography on the man's writings and correspondence as well as interviews with numerous people who knew him. Illustrated with sixteen pages of photos, and indexed.

This book was released on 2022-10-06 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Destiné à un large public, cet ouvrage présente d'abord la vie de Charles de Foucauld (1858-1916). On y apprend ses frasques de jeune officier fêtard, son rôle pendant la conquête de l'Algérie, sa fascination pour l'islam, son départ de l'armée, son parcours d'explorateur, sa conversion au christianisme, puis son invention d'un nouveau style de vie religieuse, inspiré par la vie cachée de Jésus, qui associe l'obéssance et la liberté. Ermite en Algérie, il lia amitié avec les Touaregs du Sahara. La Fraternité des Petits frères de Jésus est la première congrégation créée dans ce sillage spirituel de Charles de Foucauld. Des frères d'Algérie et d'Inde du Sud offrent ici leurs beaux témoignages.
Download or read book Fr res au coeur du monde written by Petits Frères de Jésus and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Pourquoi Charles de Foucauld demeure-t-il un don que Dieu a fait durablement à l'Eglise ?... Pour que soit reconnue davantage l'inspiration profonde de toute mission chrétienne, qui n'est pas liée à une stratégie, même pastorale, mais à une forme de vie, enracinée dans l'expérience de Dieu et appelant à une présence fraternelle de don aux autres. " Mgr Claude Dagens. Il y a cinquante ans, paraissait Au cœur des masses, un livre qui allait avoir un énorme retentissement dans le monde chrétien. Son auteur, le frère René Voillaume, y décrivait le projet spirituel des Petits Frères de Jésus, une jeune communauté religieuse inspirée par Charles de Foucauld. Dans le bouillonnement de vie qui allait conduire l'Église au concile Vatican II, les Petits Frères de Jésus présentaient une forme de vie contemplative d'un style nouveau, non pas derrière les murs d'un monastère mais dans le partage concret, en frères, de la vie des plus délaissés. C'était un défi. Cinquante ans après, Frères au cœur du monde est comme un second volume d'Au cœur des masses : par des textes simples, d'abord échangés entre eux, les frères laissent deviner comment ils affrontent ce défi. Tranches de vie cueillies à chaud, réflexions sur les événements, ces pages parlent beaucoup de la vie du monde et des petits de ce monde ; elles nous emmènent aux quatre coins de la planète, dans une extraordinaire variété de situations, dans la paix, dans les conflits, toujours au coude à coude de la lutte quotidienne des pauvres. Elles parlent aussi, en transparence, de Jésus dont chaque frère pourrait dire comme Charles de Foucauld : " J'ai perdu mon cœur pour ce Jésus de Nazareth, crucifié il y a dix-neuf cents ans, et je passe ma vie à chercher à l'imiter autant que le peut ma faiblesse. "

Book excerpt: By the beginning of the twenty-first century, Christianity has taken shape and established roots in all areas of African reality. It has come to stay. Therefore, we welcome Christianity afresh in Africa, where it has arrived to continue the ancient and vibrant Christianity in Egypt, Ethiopia, and Eritrea. It is appropriate that the Anthology of African Christianity presents, in valuable detail, this new reality that describes its African landscape in totality.
