Abstract

The experiences of pain and suffering l ived by Mother Teresa of Calcutta and Jürgen Moltmann, illuminated by their respective personal encounters with the thirsty and abandoned crucified on the cross, have admirably united these two apparently disparate characters. In the midst of the suffering caused by hatred and the violence of war, there is an encounter with the crucified God, with the suffering servant who takes upon himself all human pain. From that encounter, a conversion was born that redirected his life and his spirituality into a radical commitment to the marginalized and abandoned, to the unloved of this world.
