Reflections on different facets of vocation, offered in the hope that they may provide some light as you reflect on your life and find your calling.
In this papal exhortation, Pope Francis looks at the call to holiness in today?s world, which is something to which we all can aspire. No matter who we are, young or old, and no matter what our vocation, it is in the very act of living?with humility, kindness, and mercy?that we can become holy.
As Christians, we are often told that Lent is a time when we must sacrifice in order be worthy of God. But as Mark-David Janus, CSP, reminds us, it is important to reflect instead on what God wants most—Mercy. “Lent is where we come face to face with mercy, our need for mercy, the experience of God’s generous mercy, the challenge to be merciful to others, and perhaps hardest of all, be merciful to ourselves. It is through mercy we come to the knowledge of God.” In this spiritual journey through Lent—from Ash Wednesday to Good Friday—Fr. Janus invites readers to take a little time each day with a short quotation from scripture (taken from the day’s liturgy) and offers a thoughtful and thought-provoking reflection of his own that will challenge and enliven one’s faith.
Although Chouraqui and his work are well-known and celebrated in many parts of the world (especially in Israel, and in the francophone world), he is almost completely unknown in the anglophone world. This book represents an attempt to introduce his important work and inspiring legacy to an English-speaking audience, and to explore how it can enrich Jewish-Christian dialogue today. As a bilingual translator and Biblical scholar, I am able to make Chouraqui’s work accessible to English speakers who are unfamiliar with him—who may be intrigued by him but unable to directly access much of the material written by and about him in French.
This volume is inspired by the pioneering work of John T. M. Pawlikowski in social ethics, Jewish-Christian relations, and Holocaust studies and intends to explore the cutting-edge of these areas in his honor.
Presents points of view on the sensus fidelium from a wide range of theologians and pastors and makes an outstanding contribution by widening its application to ethical and not only doctrinal issues.
This volume compiles writings by leading moral theologians and ethicists on an important, emerging topic in the field of ethics. As spirituality asserts its broad humanistic interdisciplinarity, and moral theology emerges from its fixation on sin to address broader questions of human formation and Christian discipleship, the need for the two disciplines to be in dialogue is clear.
Annulment simplifies and demystifies the Catholic Church’s annulment process for anyone with an “irregular marriage” situation who seeks to join the Church.
Crafting a theology of hope, this book addresses both the possibility that hope offers and the capacity of hope to respond to the challenges that life presents to us all.
Following the model of the previous volumes, Charles Curran has gathered here fourteen articles relating to three areas in moral theology: I. Vatican II and Its Aftermath. II. Humane Vitae and Its Aftermath. III. Subsequent Developments
