Publisher's Synopsis
"Youth is an original and stimulating stage of life,which Jesus himself experienced, thereby sanctifying it."
Inspired by thewealth of reflections and conversations that emerged from last year's Synod,Pope Francis addresses this Apostolic Exhortation to all Christian youngpeople.
In his impassioned letter, the Holy Father captures the joys andthe struggles of young people, shedding light on what they think about faith, how theyunderstand Jesus Christ, what they do to discern their vocation and how theyfind and maintain identity. He encourages them on their journey in faith anddiscernment: with their doubts and frustrations, their efforts to find themselves, theirpast errors, their experiences of sin and all their difficulties.
As they walk - togetherwith the entire people of God - young Christians, like us all, are reminded toalways keep in mind that our journey has a destination: we are on our way toGod our Father, who is the source of love, and the reason and meaning of ourlives.
