A reflection on consecrated life, Radical Discipleship represents a beautiful way for faithful Catholics to participate in this Church-wide theme and celebration by coming to a deeper understanding of the consecrated life. Radical Discipleship illuminates the roll and presence of the consecrated state in the Body of Christ, beginning with a brief look at the origins of the consecrated life—its basis in scripture and its practice among the early Christians. The work then continues on to reflect upon: • The different forms this radical life takes • The population of consecrated persons in the Church today • The recognition that the consecrated life has received from the Church • The vows of Poverty, Chastity and Obedience taken by all consecrated persons • Community life as it pertains to consecrated life • The prophetic aspect of the consecrated life • The impact of the consecrated state on the Church community and on society Alongside these fascinating and relevant topics, Cardinal Arinze addresses some of the problems and difficulties faced by consecrated people; as well as the challenging topic of how these have led some to abandon this vocation. In examining the struggles specific to the consecrated state, the Cardinal seeks to encourage other consecrated persons to persevere in their vocation. He further calls the entire Church to actively support the consecrated life and those who have dedicated themselves to Christ in this way. Although filled with substantive information, even the most involved sections are presented in an engaging, readable, and reflective style. Far from erudite or dry, the book is not, as the Cardinal explains, “a dissertation based on deep research on the theology and canon law on the consecrated life.” Radical Discipleship is rather a reflection, written for both consecrated and laypersons; and offers wonderful material for thought and prayer. It is Cardinal Arinze’s hope that his work will make the consecrated life “better understood, loved, lived and promoted.”
