Andrea Tornielli is an Italian journalist and longtime "vaticanista" who now oversees the various Vatican media outlets. Tornielli’s latest book, "The Life of Jesus," is a reimagining of the life of Jesus that, like the TV series The Chosen, helps readers approach the story of Jesus with fresh eyes and an open heart.The book features a foreword by Pope Francis and is interwoven with commentary by the pontiff.
Archbishop Gabriele Caccia, the Holy See’s permanent observer at the United Nations, will introduce Tornielli. Tornielli will give a brief presentation on the book and then the CRC’s David Gibson will moderate a conversation with him and award-winning novelist Colum McCann about the writing process, faith and art, and the Vatican under Pope Francis.
The event will begin with a wine and cheese reception at 5:30 p.m., and the book discussion will begin at 6:15 p.m. After the event, Tornielli will sign books, which will be available for sale.
Space is limited, and registration is required.
This event is co-sponsored by Fordham’s Center on Religion and Culture, America Media, and The Saint Pio Foundation.
