Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: -Rev. Dr. Ayo Emmanuel Efodigbue, M.S.P. has given us a timely gift. Unquestionably, the Church needs today the charismatic gifts and prophetic witness of her early beginnings. Efodigbue masterfully convinces that indeed the spiritual and ministerial charisms of the early Church can and must be retrieved so that ministry may be powerfully renewed, revived and restored in the Catholic Church for today and tomorrow.- Rev. Dr. Maurice J. Nutt, C.Ss.R. Director - Institute for Black Catholic Studies Xavier University of Louisiana Ayo Efodigbue's biblical and historical study shows how charisms - gifts of the Spirit for the good of the Church - developed in the Church's theology and practice. It emerges from his personal and pastoral experience of the charisms at work in local churches throughout the world. This critical-reflective approach results in a persuasive and powerful argument for the renewal of charisms in the Church and its members. Thus, it makes a valuable contribution to the Church's ministry and the -new evangelization- that begins with and reaches out from our own renewal in the Holy Spirit. Evelyn R. Thibeaux (Former) Assistant Professor Loyola (New Orleans) Institute for Ministry The use of charismatic gifts was common in the early Church. However, manifestations and practice gradually disappeared. What happened? Were the charisms meant only for the early Church? Can the use of charismatic gifts be reclaimed? Why not, since the charisms are the Church's heritage? I believe the charisms can be retrieved and restored for ministry in the Catholic Church today as shown in this book. Ayo E. Efodigbue, Ph.D., is a Missionary of St Paul priest of Nigeria since 1994. He is an avid lover of the Holy Spirit who has conducted revivals in Nigeria, Botswana, Liberia, England, and in the cities of Baltimore, Maryland; Flint, Orange, Beaumont, Houston, and Galveston, Texas; Houma/Thibodeaux, and Reserve in Louisiana; Chicago, Illinois; and Tallahassee, Florida. He studied at the Missionary Seminary of St Paul, Abuja, Nigeria earning his B.Phil., in 1990, and M.Div., in 1994. In May 2012, Efodigbue completed his second Master's Degree (Magna Cum Laude) in Pastoral Studies at Loyola University, New Orleans. He received his Ph.D. in Theological Studies from Graduate Theological Foundation. He is currently the pastor of Our Mother of Mercy Ames, Texas and Sacred Heart Raywood, Texas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charism is a hot contemporary issue. The growing interest in the charisms is one of the significant religious developments of our time. Opinions on charisms vary to a remarkable degree. Unfortunately, in some cases, diverse viewpoints have led to confusion among Christians. On the positive side though, this developing interest in charisms has contributed to spiritual renewal and stimulated biblical research in this most important area of the Church's life. The exponential growth of the Charismatic/Pentecostal Movement throughout the world and especially in Africa urged led to choice of this topic on charisms. In the Charismatic/Pentecostal Movements the issue of charisms is very vital and extremely important. It is at the centre of its spirituality and practice. This Movement has spread to almost all major Christian confessions/denominations and continues to attract many followers. This work is unique among the many studies written on the charisms. Even though the subject of charisms has received some scholarly attention, most have not delved into the role of the charisms in the Church from Pauline perspective as this study does. The following observations and reasons demonstrate that it is still meaningful and worthwhile to study charisms in Pauline letters.

In this groundbreaking new book, Bishop Scott McCaig brings much-needed clarity to the important topic of charisms in the life and mission of the Church.

This short but comprehensive book provides a rich guide for anyone desiring to understand or deepen their experience of God's gifts. "A well-researched introduction to the Church's teaching about charisms, their missional purpose, and their powerful impact. Bishop McCaig addresses crucial issues: the relationship between the charismatic and hierarchical dimensions of the Church, charisms and discipleship, and the role of every Christians in the essential task of discerning charisms." -Sherry Weddell, Co-Founder and Executive Director of the Catherine of Siena Institute

This book was released on 2019-05-24 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is full of insights on the influences of Pentecostalism on Catholic priests and seminarians in Nigeria. It is starred with Pentecostal features, which seem rejected but are now gradually being recovered. It raises the questions of dialogue among Christians in Nigeria, particularly with the Pentecostals. The many healing ministries run by some Catholic priests are an open invitation to be understood and enculturated within Nigeria’s Catholic Christianity. It is a book to be reckoned with read with deep interests by students and teachers, and appreciated by Catholic and non-Catholics.

Download or read book Contemporary Challenges For Vatican II's Theology Of The Laity written by Francis Ezenezi and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vatican II stipulates that the laity by virtue of their baptism are constitutive members of the Church and should play their role in the mission of the whole Christian faithful in the Church and the world. More than fifty years since the beginning of the Council, the Church in Nigeria is still struggling to understand itself as well as to discern the identity, the role and participation of the lay Christian faithful in the mission of the Church. This thesis explores and analyzes the strengths and limitations of the current dominant ecclesiology of the Roman Catholic Church in Nigeria, and constructively suggests various means of overcoming some of these deficiencies. It will proffer and argue that the contemporary challenges which Vatican II's theology of the laity faces today in the Nigerian Roman Catholic Church call for a Church that is not only participatory, but also prophetic as well as a Church that engages and is constantly in solidarity with the people of God. As a foundation to this reflection, communion ecclesiology is the central and fundamental concept of all the documents of the Second Vatican Council. It provides the basis on which the revolutionary shift in the articulation of the theology of the laity was inaugurated. This shift expresses itself in its call for co-responsibility and participation of all in the life and work of the Church and underscores the priority of the vocation of the whole community of the people of God over all diversities of functions and of charisms. Placed in the context of the Nigerian Church, Christianity seems to be flourishing. However, there is evidence to show that the extent to which the presence of the laity is being felt in other aspects of the ministries of the Church as well as in the Nigerian social order is still very debatable. While acknowledging the outstanding contribution of all the people of God in regard to the proper understanding of the ecclesiology that encourages the active involvement of the laity in the mission of the Nigerian Church and society, the Nigerian Church is still rooted in a juridical ecclesiology, which does not foster the spirit of ecclesial communion and solidarity as forms of Christian witness and ministry. This thesis therefore proposes an inculturated response to the challenges posed by the non-reception of Vatican II's theology of the laity in Nigeria, based on some key principles from Vatican II's ecclesiology and African culture.

This book was released on 2017-06-05 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The church is made up of both the clergy and the laity. And for it to properly fulfill the mission for which it was instituted by Christ, all its members, each according to his or her God-given gift, must contribute both to the upbuilding of the church and to its mission. On the part of the laity, their active participation in the general mission of the church ad intra and ad extra has been a great challenge in the life and practice of the church throughout its history. The Second Vatican Council, in its spirit of aggiornamento, makes some positive difference. This work critically examines the conciliar documents, some relevant postconciliar documents, and theological reflection of some theologians. And finally, it proffers solutions that will enhance the active participation of the laity in the mission of the church in general and the church in Southeast Nigeria in particular.
