More than 20 years ago I've watched a movie that influenced my life perhaps more than anything else at that stage of my life. It impressed me so much that I decided to take certain decisions that later shaped my future life. So I am a living example of how the modern medias and tools can influence a person in the concrete reality of life. Today so much more than two decades ago people are aware of the power of the effective communication. Some pay a lot to be trainned in public speaking or reaching to the heart of the modern world. Specialist do agree on the following: poor efforts bear poor fruits. Does it ring a bell?

One William Bernbach said: "The truth isn't the truth until people believe you, and they can't believe you if they don't know what your saying, and they can't know what you've saying if they don't listen to you, and they won't listen to you if you're not interesting, and you won't be interesting until you say things imaginatively, originally, freshly". That quote seems to be easily applicable while discussing the issue of newness of the New Evangelisation. How far have we gone to make our apostolic efforts really new? Pope John Paul II called upon the Church for a new evangelization "new in ardor, methods and expression". The lack or even crisis of ardor is in a reality a crisis of faith. The true source of apostolic zeal comes from the vivid and fresh relationship with God and is being strengthen by discovery of a personal vocation that brings about the deep sense of life and gratitude that inspires a convincing witness.
