In this powerful yet simple volume, Bill Huebsch leads readers to a deeper understanding of the theology of grace as it was articulated at Vatican II by Karl Rahner, S.J. Through his distinctive images and storytelling, Bill creates an unforgettable journey to the mystery and wonder of the divine heart rooted in everyday experiences. Grace, he affirms, is indeed Gods greatest gift to us. Preachers will find here avenues of inspiration and storytelling to help point out moments of grace in the scriptures. Catechists and teachers will learn a new and vital way to pass on the tradition of grace in all its beauty and mystery. Ministers of healing will discover a sensitive and curative way to touch the wounded with the power of God. All Catholic adults will rediscover here the power and beauty of Gods grace.
Here Bill Huebsch offers a blueprint for how to bring the dreams and visions for a GREAT parish to fruition. He shows parish leaders and ministers how to move in the direction of lifelong faith formation by offering adults in the parish powerful conversion experiences (particularly through parish-based retreats and intergenerational Faith Gatherings). He also offers a clear and consistent plan for step-by-step growth, with special emphasis on excellent liturgies, strong and effective catechist and teacher formation, and developing households of faith. In this definitive guide, he not only shows parishes how to get started but also how to keep going until lifelong faith formation is a reality.

He invites them to bask in its spiritual riches and to slow down, think, pray, and reach out to God in a special way--in a word, to let Sunday truly be Sunday.
The hope and dream of the creators of these study guides is that all the faithful of the Church--laity, religious, and clergy--become familiar with the Vatican II documents and better equipped to pass on the faith. That all the faithful become better informed ministers of the Church and help animate the world with the Christian Spirit. It is the dream of Pope John XXIII himself. May we recognize that, in the council's work.
Contains creative prayers services for each week of Year B. Designed with the WCC approach in mind. Includes original music.
The story and promise of the Second Vatican Council are part and parcel of the church's daily life throughout the world. It isn't possible to prepare for or enact pastoral ministry today without being a student of Vatican II. From participatory liturgy to whole-family faith formation, from the RCIA to the deaconate, and from the renewed call to holiness to the renewed age of mercy, the springboard of the modern church is Vatican II. Because of this, knowing about the story of Vatican II is essential to understanding its promise. This volume tells that wonderful story of the council-and it does so in plain English. It follows an exciting chronological pathway from the beginning of the council...
