In a magnificent feat of imagination and scholarship, Henri Daniel-Rops takes us back to the very foundation of Christianity, to the secret meetings of a persecuted community, and back even further to the life of the One who changed the world forever.
Beginning with the appearance of the Angel to a young girl in Nazareth, he traces the fascinating story of Christ, His youth, teaching ministry, first disciples, many miracles . . . and, in the end, His betrayal, trial, and death on the Cross.
That end made a new beginning, for then comes the triumphant Resurrection, and the final appearances of Jesus in His earthly body before He is taken up to heaven, leaving us the Eucharist and the other sacraments that enable us to share in His divine life.
It's a story that can't be told too often, a story for young and old, rich and poor: the story of our salvation.
Henri Daniel-Rops (1901–1965) wrote more than seventy books, including novels, historical studies, poetry, and children's stories. He won worldwide acclaim for his books, which included histories of the Jews and of the Church. In addition to teaching, lecturing, and writing, Daniel-Rops was director of the French publishing house Fayard, as well as the popular religious magazine Ecclesia.
