Throughout the centuries certain Christians chose to live out the challenges of the Gospel in communities that withdrew from the common and conventional in the world. This book studies this phenomenon and focuses on a number of contemporary Christian communities, lay and religious, who respond to the Gospel call to discipleship in a radical way, whether by being communities of peace and reconciliation, of social ministry and solidarity with the poor, of service to the Church, or of prayer and contemplation.
