Eight articles on God’s tenderness, for the Jubilee of Mercy in the Church, published on www.opusdei.org.
The Eucharist: Mystery of Presence, Sacrifice, and Communion
The Eucharist: Mystery of Presence, Sacrifice, and Communion explores the three ends of the Sacrament of Sacraments: God’s true presence, His redemptive sacrifice, and spiritual nourishment through communion with Him. In this follow-up to his groundbreaking work, Faith Comes From What Is Heard, Lawrence Feingold constructs a biblical vision of the Eucharist from its prefigurement in the Old Testament to its fulfillment in the New and presents the Eucharistic theology of the Church Fathers, St. Thomas Aquinas, and magisterial teaching from centuries past through today. The Eucharist is a masterful text, both challenging and spiritually rich, that comprehensively examines the unspeakable mystery that is the Eucharist.
Opus Dei
Opus Dei is one of the most talked about but least known religious organizations of our time. For years no one has been allowed access to its secrets. Until now ... Here, Vatican insider John Allen uncovers its true nature. Granted unlimited access to those within its ranks, gaining a wealth of interviews with the heads of Opus Dei around the world, Allen finally separates the myths from the facts: the actual use of whips and the cilice; the true extent of Opus Dei's funds; the identities of its influential members in politics, banking and high office; and how much power this shadowy group really has. 'Definitive, persuasive and absorbing' Daily Telegraph 'Focuses on some of the most controversial aspects of the organization, from its treatment of women to its recruitment and its money' Independent 'He reports on all aspects of the Opus Dei cult (including structure and finance, and the practice of mortifying the flesh with a cilice) ... and, most usefully, includes details of the bishops and personnel around the world who are Opus Dei clergy' New Statesman 'An admirable book ... the first stop for anyone interested in [Opus Dei]' Sunday Times

Prier 15 jours avec saint Jean Eudes
Saint Jean Eudes (1601-1680) était un intellectuel. Mais il est resté très attaché au peuple, ravagé par la misère, les épidémies et la guerre. Avec Marie comme accompagnatrice, il a prêché de nombreuses missions à travers la France, soigné les pestiférés, aidé des femmes à sortir de la prostitution. Pour mieux former les prêtres, nombreux mais souvent ignorants, il a fondé la congrégation des Eudistes (1643). Prier avec saint Jean Eudes met un peu de baume sur nos nostalgies. Ce n'est pas savoir qui nous comblera, ni les dévotions, mais bien sentir et goûter intérieurement l'appel de Dieu : « Goûtez et voyez comme est bon le Seigneur » (Ps 34,9). Saint Jean Eudes fa...
Prier 15 jours avec Thomas More
Pourquoi s'intéresser aujourd'hui à Thomas More (1478-1535) ? Parce que notre époque ne peut qu'être interpellée par la vie, les écrits et la mort de cet homme de la Renaissance, qui fut à la fois un humaniste, un érudit, un magnifique écrivain (auteur de L'Utopie), un pédagogue, un diplomate et un homme politique de premier plan, avant de mourir décapité, sur ordre du roi Henri VIII. Dans cet ouvrage, le lecteur est convié à prier avec Thomas More en découvrant sa vie d'époux, de père de famille et d'homme engagé dans son siècle. Un homme dont toutes les décisions, y compris l'acceptation de sa mort, martyre de sa foi et de la primauté de sa conscience, furent éclairées par sa connaissance profonde de l'Écriture, sa vie de prière et son intimité avec le Christ. En l'an 2000, le pape Jean-Paul II a proclamé Thomas More patron des responsables de gouvernement et des hommes politiques. À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Jacques Mulliez (1940-2018), marié à Céliane de l'Épine, descendante de Thomas More, fut père de famille et dirigeant d'entreprise. Il est l'auteur de la biographie Thomas More.

Bread from Heaven
Bread from Heaven offers a contemporary theological synthesis on the Eucharist that brings together classical and critical biblical exegesis, debates on the early history of the Christian liturgy, patristic doctrine, the teachings offered by the Councils of Florence, Trent and Vatican II, and the Church’s lex orandi, all within a framework provided by the Eucharistic theology of Thomas Aquinas. The volume begins with Christ’s Bread of Life discourse in John 6, in light of the Old Testament theme of the manna, and the Synoptic accounts of the Last Supper. These biblical texts offer solid foundation for a theology of Eucharistic sacrifice, presence and Communion. It then continues with a h...
Antistite nostro: The Episcopal Ministry in the Life of the Local Church
The richness of the Catholic Church is found in the bonds of communion between the universal church and the local church. The bishop―the antistite, or high priest, as he is entitled in the Canon of the Mass―is the apostolic successor who, though always in communion with the pope, is likewise a vicar of Christ in his own right. Thus, the role of the bishop―and his understanding of his own ministry―can shape the personality of a diocese as well as its understanding of its place in the worldwide church. This Festschrift, written in honor of a bishop who has sought to enliven his diocese and remind it of its bonds of communion with the whole, aims to provide a multi-disciplined approach to the ministry of the diocesan bishop at a time when authority is held in suspicion, communion is seen as constricting, and obedience to those in authority is treated as an artifact of a bygone age. The assembled essays approach the question of the episcopal ministry from the perspective of the Catholic Church's theological tradition and aim to enlighten clergy and laity about the ministry of their bishops and encourage bishops themselves in exercising their sacred office.
