Francis of Assisi and the Franciscan Apostolate by Emile Gebhart is a comprehensive biography of Saint Francis of Assisi, the founder of the Franciscan order. The book explores Francis' early life, his conversion to Christianity, and his subsequent dedication to a life of poverty and service to others. Gebhart delves into the historical context of Francis' time, describing the political and religious landscape of medieval Italy. He also examines the impact of Francis' teachings on the Catholic Church and the world at large, including his emphasis on peace, simplicity, and charity. The book also explores the development of the Franciscan order and its role in spreading Francis' message throughout Europe and beyond. Gebhart provides a detailed account of the order's founding, its early growth, and its various branches and offshoots. Overall, Francis of Assisi and the Franciscan Apostolate is a comprehensive and engaging account of one of the most important figures in Christian history and his enduring legacy. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the Catholic Church or the development of Christian spirituality.THIS 48 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Mystics and Heretics in Italy at the End of the Middle Ages, by Emile Gebhart.
