Communicating Mercy, the forthcoming edited book by Dr Jose Vallikatt, deals with various aspects of Christian life in relation to mercy.

Communicating Mercy approaches mercy from a cultural perspective with a special emphasis on how Pope Francis tries to present the Church as communicating mercy to the modern world. The first part of the book elaborates on the biblical-theological basis of mercy relevant to the contemporary cultural context. The second part exposes how mercy is made experiential in the various lived experience of Church.

The language is simple and the numerous anecdotes and examples make the reading an enjoyable experience. The book is highly recommended for people who expect a reflective reading on the theme of Mercy,  but also want to get into mercy in action in their life.
