Church and Worship Music in the United States
This fully updated second edition is a selective annotated bibliography of all relevant published resources relating to church and worship music in the United States. Over the past decade, there has been a growth of literature covering everything from traditional subject matter such as the organ works of J.S.

The Forgotten Instruction
In The Forgotten Instruction: The Roman Liturgy, Inculturation, and Legitimate Adaptations, Father Martin explores the evolution of the Church's theology and practice of inculturation and describes how these insights have influenced the accommodations and adaptations made within the Roman liturgy. Beginning with the teachings of the Second Vatican Council, explaining Pope John Paul II's understanding of the role of inculturation in evangelization, catechesis, and liturgical renewal and ending with the Fourth Instruction on the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, this work surveys the liturgical developments made in the Roman rite. Particular attention is given to the original and subsequent ...

Sacred Liturgy
"The Sacred Liturgy is not a hobby for specialists. It is central to all our endeavors as disciples of Jesus Christ. This profound reality cannot be over emphasized. We must recognize the primacy of grace in our Christian life and work, and we must respect the reality that in this life the optimal encounter with Christ is in the Sacred Liturgy." With these words Bishop Dominique Rey of Fréjus-Toulon, France, opened Sacra Liturgia 2013, an international conference in which he brought together over twenty leading liturgists, cardinals, bishops and other scholars from around the world to emphasize the centrality of liturgical formation and celebration in the life and mission of the Church.

Catholics, Non-Catholics and Non-Catholic Catholics
Author Constantine C. Kliora writes a highly enlightening book about moral issues entitled "Catholics, Non-Catholics and Non-Catholic Catholics". And just as the title indicates by using the prefix "Non", it is a book of contrariness. It reasonably opposes non-Catholic ideas that unreasonably oppose Catholic ideas. Kliora hopes that the book will confirm the beliefs of orthodox Catholics and contribute to changing the mental attitude of the "Non-Catholic Catholics" He wishes to inform both types, the real Catholics and the so-called Catholics, about the terrible goings-on that are occuring in our Catholic Church in America. Delve into this intriguing yet illuminating read.
Christians in the Twenty-First Century
'Christians in the Twenty-First Century' examines Christianity as it is understood and practised both by active followers and those who regard themselves as Christian. The book opens with an examination of key Christian concepts - the Bible, the Creeds, the Church and the sacraments - and the major traditions of Roman Catholicism, Eastern Orthodoxy and Protestantism as well as more recent movements. The book continues with an analysis of the challenges presented by the rise of science, new approaches to biblical scholarship, the rise of fundamentalist movements, the ordination of women, secularization, the interfaith movement, and the impact of the electronic revolution.

An Inculturation Model of the Catholic Marriage Ritual
In An Inculturation Model of the Catholic Marriage Ritual, David William Antonio presents a model of how the Catholic Ritual of Marriage may be adapted to the language, culture and traditions of a particular people, specifically, the ilocanos of Northern Luzon in the Philippines. Vatican II called for the revision and adaptation of the rite of marriage, exhorting local churches to develop their own rites suited to their people's particular customs and traditions. The work of preparing a rite of marriage for a particular region cannot be limited to merely translating the typical edition. There has to be a thorough examination of both the editio typica and the people's religious and cultural t...
