Mysticism and Witness in Koinonia

The book explores the profound commitment of two distinct Catholic communities—Trappists and Jesuits—whose radical dedication leads to their violent deaths, driven by secular causes. The Trappists emphasize love and dialogue with diverse cultures and beliefs in Africa, while the Jesuits focus on justice for the marginalized in Latin America. Both communities exemplify how religious life can engage with contemporary societal issues, advocating for openness to difference and the pursuit of justice, thus redefining the gospel's application in today's pluralistic society.
