Living the Gospel of Life: A Challenge to American Catholics
āReal freedom rests on the inviolability of every person as a child of God.ā
At the conclusion of the 1998 Ad Limina visits, Pope Saint John Paul II urged the bishops of the United States:
āDo not hesitate, do not be afraid to engage the good fight of the faith (cf. 1 Tim 6:12)... Our prophetic witness is an urgent and essential service not just to the Catholic community but to the whole human family.ā
In Living the Gospel of Life: A Challenge to American Catholics, the bishops respond to that callābuilding on Pope John Paul IIās encyclical Evangelium Vitae and applying its teaching to the moral and civic challenges of our time.
They proclaim the Gospel of life as the foundation for authentic freedom and the renewal of public life in Americaācalling every Catholic to integrate faith and action, and to defend human life in all its stages.
Affirming that the right to life is the cornerstone of all other human rights, this landmark pastoral statement continues to inspire Catholics to bear prophetic witness in the public square with courage, compassion, and conviction.
