Inhaltsangabe

This new Second Edition is prompted by the Church's celebration throughout 2015 of a Year for Consecrated Life to mark both the 50th anniversary of the Second Vatican Council and the 50th anniversary of "The Decree on the Adaptation and Renewal of Religious Life." Living in the Gap wishes to raise awareness of the importance of the vocation to the consecrated life in the life of the Church and to help religious in their efforts towards the new evangelization. The challenge before religious today and before all those called to the evangelical counsels of chastity, poverty, and obedience is to do their best to narrow the gap between vision and reality. The question they should be asking themselves is not whether the gap between vision and reality exists in their lives, but whether it is getting larger or smaller.
