Ultimately, Pope Francis demonstrates how to develop a more personal relationship with Jesus Christ, ??to recognize the traces of God??s Spirit in events great and small.?

The Joy of the Gospel (Evangelii Gaudium) is the long-awaited teaching of Pope Francis on the proclamation of the Gospel. Pope Francis is calling upon the Church and the world with encouragement to begin a new chapter in evangelization. This dynamic document is written in the plain, everyday language for which the pope has become famous.

This letter falls into the category of "Apostolic Exhortation" and is directed primarily to Catholics, so I'll review it here in that light, not as though it were intended for a general audience. It seemed remarkable to me as compared to other pastoral letters from the Holy See such as the ones written by Pope John Paul II or Pope Paul VI which always seemed to come down much harder on the orthodox expression of the faith and less on the position of the faithful in the modern world. The times when the personality of the Holy Father came through were especially striking. There are those on the left who say that even given some of the refreshing aspects of this papacy, not enough will change when it comes to doctrine and canon law. I think though that given the extreme inertia of the institution, these glimmers of new ways of thinking may well have what amounts to a rapid change of course to the more progressive side. I don't know whether Evangelii Gaudium will be considered as a historically significant document in years to come, but if it plays a role in stemming the tide attempting to wash away the reforms of Vatican II it will be more beneficial than many of the church documents of the past several decades.

Like many outside of the Catholic faith, I am a great admirer of the current pope. Francis was elected upon Pope Benedict XVI’s retirement in 2013. When he chose the name Francis (after the 12th Century Franciscan founder) and wowed the world with his simple, generous lifestyle, many have seen fresh winds of change blowing in Rome. In terms of theology, he is not significantly different from his predecessors. He lacks Benedict’s keen theological acumen (no insult here, Ratzinger is brillant!); however here is a pope who is pastorally sensitive and attentive to those on the margins. If there are indeed winds of change blowing in the Catholic church, it is one of tone.

This is what makes Evangelii Gaudium (The Joy of the Gospel) so refreshing (yes I know it has been out a while and I’m late to the party). This is his second encyclical (though his first is regarded as largely Benedict’s work). Reading as an outsider, I hear the importance this pope places on gospel proclamation, that the church and all the faithful are given the missional responsibility of making disciples. He also stresses that the church and its ministers need to be thoughtful about how best to engage in the work of evangelization–that this involves holistic mission and care for the poor, as well as thoughtful ecumenical and inter-religious dialogue. While many of his examples (and source material) make the most sense to the Catholic faithful, those of us in the other ‘ecclesial communions’ will also find in Francis an appropriate challenge toward holistic, generous and joyful proclamation.

Much of what Francis says here is rooted in Lumen Gentium (Light of Nations) from the Dogmatic Constitution of Vatican II. Francis speaks to the following issues:

a) the reform of the Curch in her missionary outreach;

b) the temptations faced by pastoral workers;

c) the Church, understood as the entire People of God which evangelizes;

d) the homily and its preparation;

e)the inclusion of the poor in society;

f) peace and dialogue within society

g) the spiritual motivations for missions (17)

These seven topics give shape to the Pope’s discourse (notice that the alleged economic preoccupation of the Pope is couched and made subservient to the larger question of Christian mission). Reading as a Protestant, I found I could affirm much of what is said here. I still have many points of theological contention ( such as the authority of the pope, differences on ecclesiology and soteriology) but this is such a generous and magnanimous presentation so I don’t much feel like fighting with the pope. As a preaching pastor I especially loved his words about homily preparation (145-159). As an advocate for mission with justice, I think this is a rich resource for us (especially 176-257).

Yet as I said above, what I appreciate most is tone. This is a book about the joy: joy in Christ through the church. Proclamation is not the main papal imperative here. Joyful proclamation is. Francis calls us back to the idea that the gospel–good news!–is joyful:

There are Christians whose lives seem like Lent without Easter. I realize of course that joy is not expressed the same way at all times in life, especially at moments of great difficulty. Joy adapts and changes, but it always endures, even as a flicker of light born of our personal certainty that, when everything is said and done, we are infinitely loved. I understand the grief of people who have to endure great suffering, yet slowly but surely we all have to let the joy of faith slowly revive as a quiet yet firm trust, even amid the greatest distress: “My soul is bereft of peace; I have forgotten what happiness is . . .But this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope: the steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning. Great is your faithfulness . . . It is good that one should wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord” (Lam 3:17,21-23,26) (paragraph 6).

I have heard too many ex-Catholics bemoan their Catholic guilt. I have heard far too much from somber saints. How nice to hear a robust ode to Catholic Joy! Well done Papa Frank! 5 Stars.

Notice of material connection: I recieved this free from the publisher in exchange for my honest review! ( )

Incredibly refreshing after so many years of JP2 and B16. ( )

Published in the wake of the Synod on the New Evangelization for the Transmission of the Christian Faith, Evangelii Gaudium calls the faithful to be “missionary disciples” who will proclaim the Gospel across the world, in all places and situations.

The Holy Father isn’t unaware of the challenges to the New Evangelization. He lays out the obstacles — both external and internal — and then encourages Christians to work beyond them through inspiring kerygmatic preaching, living in solidarity with the poor, and renewing our own walk with Jesus.

Pope Francis has good advice for parish leaders, urging them (in his memorable phrase) to “smell of the sheep.”

In Evangelii Gaudium Pope Francis offers his “marching orders” to the Church in the 21st century. May it inspire all Catholic leaders to proclaim the Gospel boldly and with joy at all times. ( )
