In this revealing book, renowned speaker and author Christopher West discusses the topic of love and relationships, but he does it through the lens of his own powerful and personal experience.

The amazing story about the most celebrated artist who ever lived and a young man without a past who will stop at nothing to learn the truth about his life. Milan, 1497. The height of the Renaissance. And for Giacomo, servant of the famous painter Leonardo da Vinci, it's the most difficult time of all. His Master has been working on the Last Supper, his greatest painting ever, for nearly two years. But has he finished it? He's barely started! The all-powerful Duke of Milan is demanding that it be completed by the time the Pope visits at Easter. And Giacomo knows that if Leonardo doesn't pick up his pace, the Duke may invite a young genius -- Michelangelo -- to finish the painting instead. Which means that Leonardo won't be paid, which means that Milan's shopkeepers (to whom he owes massive amounts) will take drastic measures against him. It's all down to Giacomo, and whether he can come up with a brilliant solution. And if he does, will his Master go for it? After all, Leonardo still doesn't seem to trust him. He refuses to teach Giacomo how to paint; he won't help him find his parents; nor will he discuss the significance of the medallion, ring, and cross that Giacomo was carrying when Leonardo found him. But with the secret arrival of a powerful stranger, Giacomo is about to discover much more than the answers he has been looking for. And he will also receive an invitation to help arrange a meeting that could change his life. . . and the future course of history. With more twists and turns than a spiral staircase, this thriller is as unique as its two heroes -- the most celebrated artist who ever lived, and a young man without a past, who will stop at nothing to find the truth about his life.

The bestselling author, speaker, and teacher of John Paul II's Theology of the Body offers the first well-thought-out look into the heart and style of Pope Francis and his proclamation of the Gospel.This new book by Christopher West reflects on and shares the wisdom of Pope Francis’s The Joy Of The Gospel. Don’t be fooled by the “to go” title, as if the point were to rush through the contents of this book. Rather, Christopher wants to make Pope Francis’s wisdom accessible to those who might not have the time to sift through his document in its entirety.Francis observes that ministers of the new evangelization “should appear as people who wish to share their joy, who point to a horizon of beauty, and who invite others to a delicious banquet”. That’s Christopher's intention in putting this little book together: to share the joy, point to the beauty, and invite you to the delicious banquet he’s discovered in Pope Francis’s teaching. Bon appetit!Praise for POPE FRANCIS TO GO...“The world is thirsting for the gospel. Unfortunately, in recent times, the mainstream media has been polluting the streams of water that have been flowing out of Rome. As a result, countless Catholics read the words of Pope Francis only after his message has been garbled and misinterpreted. Thanks to Christopher West’s new book, Pope Francis to Go, we can draw deeply from the well of the great heart of Pope Francis. Christopher’s prayerful and powerful commentary on The Joy of the Gospel offers practical insights on not only how to share the good news, but more importantly, how to live it.” –Jason Evert, Author, Speaker, Cofounder of The Chastity Project“Once again, Christopher West delivers a wonderful ‘sampler’ of papal thoughts for believers to easily access and chew over even in the midst of the busyness of daily life. Whoever takes pause and even for five minutes allows themselves time to daily ponder these gems of Pope Francis will be richly rewarded. The Joy of the Gospel, concentrated so powerfully in this little book, will bring new strength and hope!”–Bill Donaghy, Curriculum Specialist, Instructor, Speaker, Theology of the Body Institute“In Pope Francis to Go, Christopher West packages Pope Francis’s teaching into small grab bags that are perfect for our sound-bite culture. It provides essential quotes for teachers, Catholic journalists like myself, and all the faithful who want to spread Francis’s message but don’t have the time to take a highlighter through The Joy of the Gospel.”–Katie Breidenbach, Reporter, NET-TV (Brooklyn, NY)About The Author...Christopher West is a proud husband and father of five. His global lecturing, best-selling books, and multiple audio and video programs have also made him the world’s most recognized teacher of Saint John Paul II’s “Theology of the Body,” a bold, biblical vision of love and sexuality that takes us to the “cor” of what it means to be human. As founder and president of The Cor Project, he leads an international outreach devoted to spreading this liberating teaching and empowering others to live and share it. His work has been featured in The New York Times, on ABC News, Fox News, MSNBC, Sirius XM and countless Catholic and Evangelical media outlets.
