Download or read book Hearers of the Word written by Kieran J O'Mahony and published by Messenger Publications. This book was released on 2022-08-31 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first and third readings for Eastertide in year C are taken from the Acts of the Apostles and the Gospel of John, both very appealing in their different ways. The second reading offers some of the more approachable scenes from the New Testament Apocalypse. The Apocalypse does not appeal to everyone, of course, but a contextualised reading and a contextualised presentation could be very life-giving. After all, the book is a response to broad cultural harassment, which occasionally firmed up to open persecution. At its core, the Apocalypse corresponds in the New Testament to the book of Job in Old. In other words, it addresses the question of suffering and what sense to make of it as believers in the crucified and risen Jesus. By exploring the context and background to all three readings, the author hopes to make the readings available for personal prayer and as a preparation for taking part in the Sunday liturgy. A very useful resource for all who wish to get more out the Sunday readings. Fr Kieran is very well-known for his regular emailings of resources on the readings. These are hugely popular amongst clergy and others. Now, for the first time, these readings are brought together in a series of books. This is the third volume covering Easter Week to Pentecost.

Download or read book Hard Sayings Left Behind by Vatican II written by Peter De Mey and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024-01-21 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project offers an original contribution to the interpretation of the documents of the Second Vatican Council that constitute the most authoritative doctrinal teaching within the Catholic Church. The chapters in this volume, published during the 60th anniversary of the Council (2022-2025), discuss three types of stumbling blocks: ‘Stumbling Blocks for Ecumenism’, ‘Stumbling Blocks for Interfaith Dialogue,’ and ‘Stumbling Blocks for Church-world Relations’. Eight specialists of ecclesiology, comparative theology, intercultural theology, and theological ethics have each written chapters on a selected line of Vatican II that constitutes a ‘stumbling block’ or ‘hard saying’ for believers and theologians today. The views expressed in these chapters have been discussed in three response essays. The stumbling blocks have been selected from Lumen Gentium, Unitatis Redintegratio, Nostra Aetate, and Gaudium et Spes. The selected lines discuss the difficulties the Catholic Church has with atheism and with the Eucharist as celebrated by Protestant ministers; how appreciation of other churches and religions goes hand in hand with defending the need of mission; and why the Council assigns different roles to priests and laity, making a distinction between the holiness of the Church and the sinfulness of its believers.

Download or read book Retired Missionaries and Faith in a Changing Society written by Carmel Gallagher and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-03 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Retired Missionaries and Faith in a Changing Society offers a sociological study of the Irish missionary diaspora. It draws on a series of interviews with female and male Catholic missionaries, mainly nuns and priests, who have worked in Asia, Africa and Central and South America, and who have returned to live in Ireland. The chapters provide unique insight into their experiences, exploring how they have navigated life-course changes in the context of changing church and changing societies. Retired missionaries have several vantage points from which to communicate their understandings, having worked across cultures and encountered some of the most challenging global social problems. Responding to significant changes in the Catholic Church, in Irish society, in their host countries and in mission work itself, their lives offer valuable perspectives on what it is to be Christian in contemporary society. The rich narrative data illuminates deep and complex processes of meaning-making as missionaries have sought to integrate their religion and spirituality in dynamic and diverse settings. The book suggests that the holistic character of the work of missionaries raises important questions about the different ways of being ethical, religious and acting justly in the world today. It will be of particular interest to scholars of Christianity, missiology, and the sociology of religion.

Wissenschaftlichen Konsultation der Societas Oecumenica Living Tradition Continuity and Change as Challenges to Churches and Theologies Proceedings of the 21st Academic Consultation of the Societas Oecumenica Living tradition is the focal point of this volume, exploring ›theologies of tradition,‹ ›captivities of tradition,‹ ›changing traditions,‹ and ›dynamics of Tradition.‹ It takes on the notion of ›living tradition‹ from four distinct angles. How do various churches and denominations handle continuity while embracing different theologies of tradition? How do individuals address traditionalism and fundamentalism when faced with the captivities of tradition? In what ways can identity be preserved through discontinuities when dealing with changing traditions? The volume encompasses contributions from 31 scholars, presented during the 21st academic consultation of Societas Oecumenica (the European Society for Ecumenical Research). [Lebendige Tradition. Kontinuität und Wandel als Herausforderungen für Kirchen und Theologien] Die lebendige Tradition steht im Mittelpunkt dieses Bandes und untersucht ›Theologien der Tradition‹, ›Gefangene der Tradition‹, ›sich verändernde Traditionen‹ und ›Dynamiken der Tradition‹. Der Begriff der ›lebendigen Tradition‹ wird aus vier verschiedenen Blickwinkeln betrachtet. Wie gehen verschiedene Kirchen und Konfessionen mit Kontinuität um und berücksichtigen gleichzeitig unterschiedliche Theologien der Tradition? Wie gehen Einzelpersonen mit Traditionalismus und Fundamentalismus um, wenn sie mit den Fesseln der Tradition konfrontiert werden? Auf welche Weise kann Identität durch Diskontinuitäten im Umgang mit sich verändernden Traditionen bewahrt werden? Der Band umfasst Beiträge von 31 Wissenschaftlern, die während der 21. akademischen Konsultation der Societas Oecumenica (der Europäischen Gesellschaft für ökumenische Forschung) vorgestellt wurden.

Download or read book Joe Biden and Catholicism in the United States written by Massimo Faggioli and published by Bayard. This book was released on 2021-01-20 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful examination of the role of Catholicism in U.S. politics and in the life of Joseph R. Biden . After a dramatic election amid a raging pandemic, racial violence, economic collapse and historic national divisions that have threatened our democracy, Joe Biden succeeds Donald Trump as the 46th President of the United States. For Catholics, this is a momentous occasion in US public life, as he is the second Catholic to be elected to the nation's highest office, joining John Fitzgerald Kennedy. In 2021, Joe Biden becomes president in a very different situation than Kennedy's America. Today, Catholics play a much broader and more visible role in the public life of our country, and the triangle of relations between the White House, the Vatican, and the US Catholic Church is an essential dimension for understanding the political and religious urgency of this moment in our history. In this ground-breaking book, historian and theologian Dr. Massimo Faggioli provides an insightful overview of Catholicism in US politics, and its place as an anchor in the life of the man elected to lead the country at a decisive crossroads, an unprecedented moment in US history.

Download or read book Your Church Wants to Hear from You written by Michael J. Sanem and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2022-04-23 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In October 2021, the Catholic Church officially began the largest consultative process in human history. The entire people of God, some 1.34 billion Catholics worldwide, were asked to participate in a process of listening and engagement together over the course of two years. Why embark on this incredibly novel, time-consuming, and expensive task? Because your church wants to hear from you. This booklet explains and explores why the leaders of the Catholic Church have discerned that the synodal path is what “God expects of the church of the third millennium.” This Synod on Synodality is not just another meeting. It is the beginning of a conversion process that is essential to the life of the church and its mission. And the Church needs you to carry it out.

Download or read book The Pontificate written by La Civiltà Cattolica and published by ucanews. This book was released on 2022-04-12 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An eBook offering a portrait of the Franciscan pontificate. This eBook from La Civilta Cattolica consists of 14 narrative essays, summarizing the key features of Francis’ papacy. In this volume we gather some articles that have appeared in the English edition of La Civiltà Cattolica. They offer a portrait of the pontificate. Obviously, these pages are not exhaustive – nor do they intend to be so – but they certainly do touch on some of the key points for understanding the figure and work of Jorge Mario Bergoglio. The first two chapters go to the roots of his formation. Ten years after the event, the first chapter takes us back to the Fifth General Conference of the Episcopate of Latin America and the Caribbean (CELAM), which took place in the Brazilian city of Aparecida, May 11-31, 2007. The pastoral experience of Bergoglio and his inspiration have deep roots in that Conference. The second text reconstructs the figure of Fr. Miguel Ángel Fiorito (1916-2005) who was a central figure in the formation of Bergoglio. Then some specific themes are addressed: the international politics of the pontificate, his own style of leadership, a closer look at the apostolic exhortation Amoris Laetitia and the themes of the encyclical Laudato Si’. Finally, the volume closes with a reflection on being a pastor, its specific characteristics, and also how to recognise a “bad pastor.”

Book excerpt: Drawn from Archbishop Thomas Collins popular monthly lectio divina series at St. Michaels Cathedral in Toronto, Pathway to Our Hearts invites readers to listen to the word of God and examine what it tells them about loving God with their mind, heart, and hands. With the Sermon on the Mount as his focus, Collins welcomes readers into a nourishing encounter with the word of God, adapting the ancient practice of lectio divina for todays Catholics. At this time of revival of the tradition of lectio divina, including a strong endorsement by the 2008 Synod on the Word, Collins models a simple approach that anyone can take to reading scripture. Collinss friendly, conversational manner encourages the reader to learn to listen to the text, allowing Gods voice to speak to the heart. From his long experience of teaching the Bible, Collins offers readers expert advice on praying with the scriptures, but most importantly he models it, and those who thirst to draw close to Gods word will find refreshment in these pages.
