At the Crossroads of Church and World

by Bienvenido F. Nebres

At the Crossroads of Church and World is a deeply inspiring memoir about Fr. Bienvenido Nebres and his unwavering love for the country he serves. He takes us through the formative years of his childhood and his education, through the harrowing Martial Law years as he played a pivotal role in the revolution and rebuilding of a wounded nation. His quest to close the poverty gap in the Philippines by way of education guided him through his years as the Ateneo de Manila University president and led him to the honor of a National Scientist award.

I graduated from Ateneo during the Ben Nebres era, and all I can say is that he was able to steer the University in the right direction, to be continued by the Presidents that came next to him. But more than that, I was able to appreciate this memoir as a priest in which horizons were in sight. Long live, Fr. Ben, and I hope that you continue to inspire more Jesuits and priests who were under your leadership.
