Lazarus at the Tale is the fruit of more than two decades of instructing students in the social teachings of the Catholic Church. For most of these years Bernard Evans has taught graduate students. Lately he also teaches lay Catholics engaged in parish ministry and enrolled in diocesan ministry formation programs. This book is written specifically for the latter group. Evans agrees with the bishops of the United States who insist that any Catholic education that does not include Catholic social teaching is not fully Catholic. And so he writes clearly, concisely, and convincingly about how Catholic social teaching addresses such contemporary issues as human dignity, abortion, assisted suicide and euthanasia, embryonic stem cell research, the death penalty, war, family, marriage, poverty, superfluous income, just wages, unions, peace, solidarity, and many more. Excerpts from the church's official teachings in papal documents abound throughout the book. Bernard Evans holds the Virgil Michel Ecumenical Chair in Rural Social Ministries at Saint John's School of Theology'seminary, Collegeville, Minnesota.
Thomas hears voices. They tell him to kill women with auburn hair. Superintendent Cadema Sharma, a SIO in the Met, is on a mission for justice. She investigates all five vicious murders of young women. But each enquiry leads to a dead end. DNA left at each scene, is useless. One victim has blond hair. An intended victim whispers the name Thomas, but later denies having said this. Being pulled in too many directions, she must focus on the only suspects she has; none are called Thomas. So who is Thomas? If he is the perpetrator, what is his motive? Cadema needs answers now, before any more murders are committed.
