Cardinal Newman for Today

Cardinal Newman for Today presents the tree of John Henry Newman’s life. It locates the roots of that tree in his encounter with the wisdom of antiquity, the discovery of divine revelation and the encounter with the Fathers of the Church. As for the shoots, it identifies them in the living tradition of the Church, the faith-life of believer sand the reality of doctrine. The fruits, finally, are visible in the Gospel of joy lived out in obedience to God and conscience. Someone has described Newman as saying in effect, 'If you have a religion like Christianity, think of it and have it worthily.'
