Christ is Alive by Michel & Bernard, J. F. Quoist (translated)

Christ Is Alive by Michel and Bernard Quoist, translated by J. F. Quoist, is a gentle yet profound exploration of faith made real in the rhythms of daily living.

Continuing the spirit of Michel Quoist’s much-loved Prayers of Life, this volume gathers meditations that speak to the heart of Christian experience — the meeting of the divine and the human in work, struggle, love, and hope. Each reflection is written in simple, lyrical language that invites readers to pause, pray, and recognise the presence of Christ at the centre of ordinary moments.

Filled with compassion and spiritual depth, Christ Is Alive reminds us that God is not distant but fully alive in the world — in laughter and sorrow, community and solitude, prayer and action. It is a timeless resource for anyone seeking renewal, encouragement, or a deeper awareness of God’s love.

Perfect for readers who enjoy:
• Contemporary Christian prayers and meditations
• Devotional books that connect faith with real life
• Writings by Michel Quoist, Henri Nouwen, and John Main
• Resources for personal prayer and reflection

Publisher’s Synopsis:

This is an account of Michel Quoist’s major statement of his approach to modern spirituality in which his concern is to make relevant to modern men and women the basic timelessness of the Christian message. He examines the fundamental teachings of Christianity together with the traditions from which they sprang and then presents a spirituality that is as deeply rooted in tradition as it is in the modern world. Michel Quoist was ordained a priest in 1947.
