"This book shows Cardinal Sarah to be one of the most spiritually alert churchmen of our time." -- Bishop Robert Barron , Creator and Host, Catholicism film series "Cardinal Robert Sarah''s profound exploration of the silence in which we hear the still, quiet voice of God, and thus come to know the truth about ourselves, is a powerful challenge to the cacophony of our times and a summons to a more Gospel-centered way of life." -- George Weigel , Distinguished Senior Fellow and William E. Simon Chair in Catholic Studies, Ethics and Public Policy Center "Cardinal Sarah provides an incomparable help to contemporary man, so that he may practice the silence which is necessary to hear the voice of God and so to know himself and the world in their deepest truth, beauty, and goodness." --Cardinal Raymond Burke , Author, Hope for the World "Noise, as C.S. Lewis'' devil Screwtape famously said, is the music of hell. Cardinal Sarah offers us a richly engaging, elegantly written reflection on the importance of recovering silence in our own lives, and through silence, rediscovering the presence of God, the beauty of creation, and the nature of our mission as disciples." --Most Rev. Charles Chaput , Archbishop of Philadelphia "Cardinal Robert Sarah has once again powerfully spoken a message desperately needing to be heard in our contemporary society. I pray that many will read this treasure chest of wisdom." --Most Rev. Salvatore Cordileone , Archbishop of San Francisco "It is impossible to exaggerate the importance of this profound, uniquely beautiful book." --Michael D. O''Brien , Author, Father Elijah: An Apocalypse "Africa produces the most passionate Catholics, and the happiest people, even in terrible external circumstances. Here is a book by an African cardinal about a simple but profound mine shaft to deep happiness." --Peter Kreeft, Ph.D. , Professor of Philosophy, Boston College "Cardinal Sarah offers profound insights into the importance of silence, a topic that needs to be addressed in the Church today." --Fr. Donald Calloway , Author, Champions of the Rosary: The History and Heroes of a Spiritual Weapon "The jewel of contemplative life never hides for long. In this remarkable interview, Cardinal Sarah, the great contemplative prefect in Rome, provides a treasure trove of profound commentary on the sacredness of silence for the pursuit of a serious spiritual life in a world dominated by the dictatorship of noise." --Fr. Donald Haggerty , Author, The Contemplative Hunger "More people in the Western world are isolated, lonely, and restless, not knowing how to conquer their personal demons. This long interview on silence--not self-absorption, not absence--between Nicolas Diat and Cardinal Sarah takes us in the opposite direction to quiet, peace, and God, offering hundreds of quotations from across three thousand years. Carthusian silence is not an option for most of us, but busy people also need to be silent and know God, who is not in the earthquake, the storm, or modern noise. This book is not for the faint-hearted, but it helps explain why Cardinal Sarah is one of the most courageous and prophetic figures on the College of Cardinals." -- George Cardinal Pell , Prefect of the Secretariat for the Economy "In his latest book, The Power of Silence , Cardinal Sarah demonstrates a truly profound and insightful understanding of the current state of the human condition. With a clarity and directness that is refreshing, His Eminence points out how it is nearly impossible to encounter God in the "hell of noise" which characterizes our modern experience. So many of the problems and the hopelessness that envelope us are related back to

Synopsis
Now with a new afterword by Pope emeritus Benedict XVI! In a time when technology penetrates our lives in so many ways and materialism exerts such a powerful influence over us, Cardinal Robert Sarah presents a bold book about the strength of silence. The modern world generates so much noise, he says, that seeking moments of silence has become both harder and more necessary than ever before. Silence is the indispensable doorway to the divine, explains the cardinal in this profound conversation with Nicolas Diat. Within the hushed and hallowed walls of the La Grande Chartreux, the famous Carthusian monastery in the French Alps, Cardinal Sarah addresses the following questions: Can those who do not know silence ever attain truth, beauty, or love? Do not wisdom, artistic vision, and devotion spring from silence, where the voice of God is heard in the depths of the human heart? After the international success of God or Nothing , Cardinal Sarah seeks to restore to silence its place of honor and importance. "Silence is more important than any other human work," he says, "for it expresses God. The true revolution comes from silence; it leads us toward God and others so as to place ourselves humbly and generously at their service.", In a time when there is more and more noise, and technology and materialism continue to exert their hold on us, Cardinal Robert Sarah presents a bold book about the strength of silence. The world generates so much noise that seeking moments of silence only becomes more necessary. For Cardinal Sarah, modern man, in repressing the divine, finds himself in a deep dilemma, an oppressive and anguishing trial. The Cardinal recalls that life is a silent relationship between what is most intimate in man and God. Silence is indispensable for hearing the music of God: prayer arises from silence and returns to silence with ever greater depth. In this long and profound conversation with Nicolas Diat, done within the hallowed walls of silence in the famous Carthusian monastery of La Grande Chartreux in France, the Cardinal proposes the question: can those who do not know silence ever attain truth, beauty, love? The response is undeniable: all that is great and creative is formed by silence. God is silence. After the great international success of God or Nothing, translated into fourteen languages, Cardinal Sarah seeks to restore to silence its place of honor and importance. "Although speech characterizes man, silence is what defines him, because speech acquires sense only in terms of this silence." This is the beautiful and significant message of The Power of Silence. In this book, Cardinal Sarah has only one aim, which is summed up in this thought from his book: "Silence is difficult but it makes a human being able to allow himself to be led by God. Silence is born of silence. Through God the silent one we can gain access to silence. And a human being is unceasingly surprised by the light that bursts forth then. Silence is more important than any other human work. For it expresses God. The true revolution comes from silence; it leads us toward God and others so as to place ourselves humbly and generously at their service.", Now with a new afterword by Pope emeritus Benedict XVI In a time when there is more and more noise, and technology and materialism continue to exert their hold on us, Cardinal Robert Sarah presents a bold book about the strength of silence.

    Fantastic Seller! Great communication, sent actual photos of the Bible AND - LOWERED the PRICE for me! This is a very thick book of over 2000 pages (yes, 2K+) and was surprised it was just in a slightly padded envelope. The envelope had obvious damage including a tear along the Bible edge, may have let some moisture in - even dirt and wood chips embedded on one end of the envelope. Miraculously, the book looked very good once out. Very near MINT for a 31 year old book! Great! THANKS THANKS TY!!

    The book shipped and arrived very quickly. It was packaged adequately and in good condition, as described. The photo was accurate and the price was good. I was pleasantly surprised to find a poster of the cover art for the book included and folded in the back of it. The seller was very good and I'd be happy to purchase from them again in the future.

  • THE POWER OF - "The Power of Silence"

    A Deacon told me about this book. He said it was a wonderful book that he may have to read several times to grasp the full content. I agree, it is a wonderful book and it is rather deep in content. I read it one page at a time to counteract my desire to "finish" the book. That attitude is among many which are shared in this book. We can thank this traditional mindset Catholic Cardinal for fulfilling his role to help the entire Catholic Church. So many other Cardinals sit and wonder what is the next liberal car crash they can toss at the Church. Not Cardinal Sarah, he goes right into a discussion about exactly what this world is missing and doesnt even realize - silence. Not closed mouth silence, as if closing our traps might help us find God. It would be a good start, but we are ...

  • The Power of Silence by Cardinal Sarah

    An excellent read! I read another book by Cardinal Sarah and do i bought this one too and I'm glad I did. It is a remarkable book. With all the myriad noise in the world, what we have to listen to and what we listen to, plus all the thoughts we think and cause makes the a must read for any serious Catholic Christian to tune out the world and into the Silence which is God and truly beautiful. I'm trying to do this in my urban area, many times hard to do but Cardinal Sarah gives plenty of examples and advice on how to achieve this. Even at Adoration sometimes all of us can't stop thinking, keep our mind on Jesus, who is God. The Silence at Adoration is the best way for me but I'm happy to re-read this book in small sections to better my hope of hearing The Triune God even amongst a noisy ...

  • Silence

    One of the best books I have ever read. It needs to be read contemplatively in prayer. This is a book you will read several times. I was suggested to read this book by my Pastor and was well worth it. Cardinal Sarah has several books out that should be read one after the other. I also see his wisdom he speaks of in the Mass being full of Noise that distracts us from the Eucharist.

  • Much to learn from silence

    Bishop Sarah is a brilliant thinker and writer! As I grow older I am craving the ability to encounter God in the early hours before sun up in silence. To not be distracted by the noise of this life is euphoric.
