We are often told what we should aspire to live like Jesus, but we are hardly ever told how. How to Be Fully Human integrates anthropological, psychological, biblical, and spiritual approaches, leading us to learn—and comprehend—the freedom that only authentic love offers us—to be loved and to love.

This book explores the mysterious landscape of our inner world and invites us to descend into God's experience to discover who we are: children loved by his immense love that embraces our fragility. The author presents pedagogical steps so that we can let ourselves be loved and love like Jesus.
