What People Are Saying

As we witness a global recalibration and rebalancing, Fr. Cardó places in our hands a refreshingly lucid summary of Joseph Ratzinger’s understanding of faith to carry us through the twenty-first century. Far from anthropocentric, Christian faith is personal and Christ-centered: ‘Cor ad cor loquitur’ (St. John Henry Newman). Fr. Cardó shows that faith is an entrusting of the human self to Christ in the mind of Ratzinger. Highly recommended.

This book offers a concise yet rich overview of Ratzinger’s profound vision of Christian faith. I have no doubt that Fr. Cardó’s work will help many of the faithful grow in their understanding of what it means to believe. It will also give them the insights needed to grow stronger in their faith and live it out in a society that is increasingly dismissive of it. I recommend this timely and accessible book to anyone who wants to live an intelligent faith with conviction in the modern world.

More than anything else, we need a renewed encounter with the person of Jesus Christ and, through faith in him, communion within the divine life of the Trinity. Fr. Daniel Cardó focuses us on this burning necessity, drawing upon the rich thought of Joseph Ratzinger. In an age bound by the visible, yet still thirsting for the infinite, there is nothing more important for both the Church and society than strengthening our belief in God and allowing him to be the center of all we do. I commend Fr. Cardó for making Ratzinger’s insights more accessible, pointing us back to the centrality of faith, the only path to true freedom.

At 1 Peter 3:15 we find the words, ‘Always be prepared to make a defense to any one who calls you to account for the hope that is in you.’ In this work one can read the defenses of Joseph Ratzinger, who is not just another big-name theologian, but the theologian of our time, the way that Newman was the theologian of the nineteenth century. In this ‘back to the fourteenth century’ decade of clerical corruption, something like the plague, and rampant nominalism, Fr. Cardo’s reflection on Ratzinger’s understanding of faith is a very consoling and edifying contribution to Emmaus Academic.
