Interview with Robert P. Imbelli on Rekindling the Christic imagination: Theological meditations for the New Evangelization, by Robert P. Imbelli
Abstract
The Second Vatican Council marked the beginning of the New Evangelization. It sought to communicate the Gospel's perennial newness to the contemporary world in a spirit of joy and hope. Yet despite the exhortations of Paul VI and John Paul II, a number of ecclesial and cultural factors deflected the church's evangelical energies, so that the council's radiant Christocentric vision faded in an increasingly polarized church.
