"Archbishop Romero invites us to sanity and reflection, to respect for life and harmony." Pope Francis "Romero does not speak from a distance. He does not hide his fears, his brokenness, his hesitations. It is as if he puts his arm around my shoulder and slowly walks with me. He shares my struggles. There is a warmth in his words that opens my heart to listen."Henri J. M. Nouwen "Oscar Romero was converted by suffering: the suffering of a friend, of the people he served, and then finally his own suffering. There are many ways to be converted, but perhaps the best way is to live among the poor and to discover in them, as Romero did, the presence of Christ." Samuel Ruiz Garcia, Bishop of San Cristobal, Mexico "The Scandal of Redemption consists of excerpts from Archbishop Romeros diary interspersed with passages from his homilies in which he denounces injustice and calls murder and torture by their names. He preaches to the oppressed and to men of violence alike, pointing them to the gospel of redemption and liberation. . . . Of this there is no doubt: Oscar Romero is a true martyr for Christ. He proclaimed Gods love and was prepared, like any good shepherd, to give his life for his sheep." Cardinal Gerhard Müller, First Things "Oscar Romero has so much to say to our church and our world today, and in The Scandal of Redemption we have been given an accessible way to read and spend time contemplating his encouraging words. My heart was set ablaze once again." Tommy Tighe, Angelus News "The Scandal of Redemption is direct testimony, excerpting from Romero's sermons, talks, documents and diaries the key passages that explained his spiritual and temporal messages in troubled times. It lets the saint speak for himself. His was an applied theology. He started with the Bible and interpreted what that meant to contemporary Salvadorans."Catholic News Service
