About this Book
This cry of Jesus, the crucified God, awakens in Chiara Lubich a unique understanding
and experience of his mystery. Jesus' abysmal suffering gives light and meaning
to every human suffering and reveals the secret to uniting all people to God
and to one another. Chiara retraces her spiritual journey that gives life
to the Focolare Movement. She weaves together spirituality and theology, prayer
and history, revealing a human-divine adventure that in her account becomes
a song of joy and gratitude, "a love letter to Jesus forsaken."
"Through Christ crucified and forsaken, the open 'window' between God
and man, as Chiara defines him, the Father is watching us, and we can return
to contemplate him and to rejoice in his presence. 'Father, may they all be
one' is the prayer of Christ but also the invocation with which Chiara closes
this book and opens the dawn of the third millennium to hope. Whoever reads
The Cry cannot but make this prayer their own, addressing their love letter
to the crucified Lord." From the Foreward
by Cardinal Paul Poupard "It is a joy to read the story of the Focolare
Movement, as dramatically told here by its foundress, Chiara Lubich. Sanctity,
revealed to us above all in Jesus forsaken, provides what is in the end the
uniquely profound and realistic response to the complex problems of contemporary
culture." David L. Schindler
Dean, John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family
