About this listen

Pope Francis's third official book—already an international best seller—on how to find joy in challenging circumstances.

'This is Christian hope: the certainty of walking towards something that exists, not something I hope might be there.'

In response to the devastating loss the world faced during the pandemic, Pope Francis was inspired to write a book to help people find hope and meaning. God is joyful, he writes. And God's compassion is no less than the deepest expression of God's joy, and the heart of all Christian preaching. The liberating revolution of the Gospel is encapsulated here. We are not supposed to carry burdens heavier than those we already have, but to bear witness to a new, beautiful and surprising horizon: to share a joy that has been prepared for everyone.

From the anxieties of the age to the importance of nature, A Gift of Joy and Hope encourages listeners to look outside themselves to embrace authentic beauty, change attitudes that exclude others, overcome life's challenges with courage and trust that joy and hope are still possible, even in challenging times; for joy has the last word—always.

A very good message

As an atheist, I like this Pope and his message of Love, Kindness and Peace.
