Fr. Raniero Cantalamessa has the unique distinction of being the preacher to three different papal households. Respected Italian journalist Aldo Valli interviews Fr. Cantalamessa in commemoration of his eightieth birthday. From hearing God's call to be "the bearer of living water" at a young age to playing an integral role in the Second Vatican Council and becoming papal preacher to three popes, Cantalamessa's entire life has been lived in service to the Word of God. This fascinating look into the life of one of the greatest spiritual teachers alive today will quench your own spiritual thirst.

Serving the Word reveals Cantalamessa's spiritual integrity, humility, willingness to change, and the human goodness that, one suspects, is a legacy of his impoverished childhood in rural Italy. It is a model of autobiographical reflection, implicitly showing the reader how to examine one's life through the prism of grace. His abundant gratitude and the loving descriptions of the people and ideas that shaped his life make this excellent spiritual reading. --Catholic Library World
