Hope of the Bible, Hope of the People (26)

Booklets from Taizé: 26

Brother John
Hope of the Bible, Hope of the People


Is it still possible to hope in our times?
The optimism that marked the decades after the Second World War disappeared a long time ago. Looking to the future, it has given its place to an increasing sense of apprehension and uncertainty.
Who today still believes in a bright tomorrow?
And yet the message of the Bible and the Gospel holds within it an irrefutable dimension of hope. But what is the link between hope rooted in God and beautiful human hope?
This meditation seeks to encourage us to face the challenges of our time, avoiding both the abyss of carefree irresponsibility and the trap of disappointed retreat, anchoring us firmly in God's today.

The Taizé booklets seek to uncover paths to the essential sources of faith. Drawing on the experiences of youth meetings around the community, they look at crucial questions for Christians today.
