About the Author Robert Cardinal Sarah was born in Guinea, West Africa.
After the great international success of his first two books, God or Nothing and The Power of Silence , Cardinal Sarah offers a wide-ranging reflection on the crisis of the contemporary world while teaching many important spiritual lessons.
While making clear the gravity of the crisis through which the West has gone, the Cardinal demonstrates that it is possible to avoid the hell of a world without God, a world without man, a world without hope.
