Reviews

[James Millikan]

Sound theologically and told in engaging narrative style, Kenosis is a good introduction to the Christian path of humility and selfless action. The pages of this text are not the syllogisms of a heady academic, but the loving and generous reflections of a man who patterned his life on the life of St. Francis–a life of poverty and joy. Tired of the rat race and relentless social Darwinism? Cronin's book offers a radical and radiant different course.

[Alberto Lagomarsini]

Pudo haber sido mejor si hubiera centrado el tema en el título del libro. Creo que es más un desahogo de frustraciones por los primeros años como franciscano. Pero sobre el tema lo toca tan someramente que no se si el libro debe llamarse así o es una forma peculiar de ver la Kenosis. Sorprendente que todavía sea franciscano.
