He played video games, excelled in school and sports, and radiated contagious joy—even in suffering. Blessed Carlo Acutis (1991–2006), often called “a Thomas Aquinas in blue jeans,” is inspiring the world with his deep love for the Eucharist and his simple, holy way of life.
In God’s Influencer, readers are invited into an intimate interview with Carlo’s parents, Antonia and Andrea, who reflect on their son’s extraordinary spiritual journey. Through their heartfelt stories, you'll see how Carlo’s faith matured—beginning with the “plan of life” he created the day after his First Holy Communion—and how his deep relationship with Jesus transformed the ordinary into something profoundly beautiful.
This book features powerful selections from Carlo’s own reflections on Scripture, the Eucharist, and the life of faith. His words—grounded in wisdom far beyond his years—continue to guide and inspire young people and adults alike.
