Excerpt from the Foreword by Fr. James McQuade, S.J. (Former National Promoter of Sodalities): To transcend the limits of strict obligation demands motivation beyond the ordinary and more or less superficial kind generated by the all too common half-conscious grasp of the driving truths of our holy faith. The truths are the same for all. The difference in the lay apostle lies in his greater grasp of them. The ordinary run-of-the-mill Catholic normally knows the basic motivating truths of Catholicism.

Excerpt from the Foreword by Fr. James McQuade, S.J. (Former National Promoter of Sodalities): To transcend the limits of strict obligation demands motivation beyond the ordinary and more or less superficial kind generated by the all too common half-conscious grasp of the driving truths of our holy faith. The truths are the same for all. The difference in the lay apostle lies in his greater grasp of them. The ordinary run-of-the-mill Catholic normally knows the basic motivating truths of Catholicism. The lay apostle enters into these truths intellectually and allows the dynamic force of them to have its full effect upon his will. The ordinary Catholic conforms passively to what the Church believes and teaches. The lay apostle dedicates himself to lines of action proceeding from the truths of divine revelation. To be a lay apostle is to be more than an ordinary Catholic. Christ wants lay apostles. This is the age of the lay apostolate. Christ Wants More is the title of this book. It is a truly modern title. Christ, however, never asks for anything but that He makes a promise, and the promises of Christ are the motivating forces of dynamic Catholicism. To make oneself dedicated to giving Christ the more He wants, one must plunge oneself into the realities of the world in which Christ wants more, the world He presents to us in His life and teaching.... All who are engaged either in giving or in making the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius will welcome this book as a truly efficient aid in the spiritual formation of the lay apostle in a spirituality that is truly apostolic engendering in the apostle himself that dedication to the work of Catholic Action for what Pope Pius XII calls the "consecratio mundi," the consecration of the world to Christ and His Kingdom.
