Book excerpt: The goal of this book is to uncover the meaning of "human formation and development" as it appears in the new fifth edition of the Program of Priestly Formation and The Basic Plan for the Ongoing Formation of Priests. This book is unique in its careful analysis of the depths of human formation for seminarians and priests. Most books written since the awareness of the sexual-abuse crisis in the Church have generally addressed the causes of and remedies for the crisis. But few books outline the overall view of priestly formation. The inspiration for Catholic Priesthood came from numerous reporters and investigators who contacted the author with questions about priestly formation in the wake of the crisis. Paperback

Book Synopsis On the Liturgical Formation of the People of God by : Pope Francis
Download or read book On the Liturgical Formation of the People of God written by Pope Francis and published by Paulist Press. This book was released on with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Desiderio desideravi, the title of Pope Francis’s 2022 document on the sacred liturgy, comes from the Latin version of Luke 22:15: “I have earnestly desired (Desiderio desideravi) to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.” Pope Francis begins this beautiful and relatively short reflection on the beauty, goodness, and truth of the sacred liturgy by reminding us of the Most Holy Trinity’s love for us and desire for us. Responding to the need demonstrated by the desire of some Catholics for the pre-Vatican II Mass, Pope Francis encourages a deepening of our understanding of the Eucharist in order that we might fully appreciate the riches in the liturgy. The pope’s text is accompanied by a helpful introduction and commentary by prominent liturgical and sacramental theologian, Kevin W. Irwin.

This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new paper of the author focuses on the factors and the processes that determine, conditionate and favour, ontogenetically, the formation and consolidation of, what has been consecrated in the literature – as personological concept and theory – Plenary and Accomplished Person. For this purpose, he operates with a theoretical-psychological and conceptual apparatus with important philosophical valences, proposing an ontological-humanistic model of interpretation and research of the factors, processes, stages, and mechanisms that lead to the formation of the Personality and, especially, of the Person as a Whole. The work is carried out – after a technical introduction referring to the situation and the presence of the subject in the context of the contemporary literature – throughout 10 chapters, passing gradually, from an introductory theoretical exposition opener of operational analysis frameworks to applied and detailed approaches relating to the formation and development of the person/ personality (the humanistic approach and the humanistic-ontological approach), basic sources, factors and conditions, basic characteristics, laws, and principles of the process of formation and development of the person/ personality, the holistic process of personalization. A particular attention is paid in the book to the great subprocesses of the holistic processes of personalization, of formation of mature, fully functioning and humane person/ personality, to the formation of the psychological-social/ relational sphere of the person, and, finally, of formation of the person as a whole. Other aspects approached by the author are the beingness, the functioning and the development/ fulfillment of the person/ personality, the education and the therapy/ counseling (in relation to the core theme of the paper). Regarding the destination of this paper, its design, content and bibliography are made in such a way that to be useful both to the academic community, to students and teachers, and also to the professional community, to psychotherapists, educators, managers, social workers, artists, etc.

Book Synopsis The Formation of a People by : Carmichael D. Crutchfield
Download or read book The Formation of a People written by Carmichael D. Crutchfield and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "New from pastor and professor Carmichael Crutchfield, steeped in current scholarship and lifetime of experience in the African American church, this contribution to the study of Christian education expands our understanding of education to encompass the larger life and ministry of the church, from practices of testimony, worship, and preaching to more traditional classroom contexts of Sunday church school and midweek Bible study. Dr. Crutchfield further develops the concept of Christian education in light of spiritual formation, wherein our pedagogies are oriented toward forming the Christian disciple in the likeness and character of Jesus Christ. The book provides constructive definitions of Christian education and faith formation, as well as clarity about formation processes across all ages and seasons of life. The author gives particular attention to such formation as it occurs in the historic and contemporary African American church context, where those who do ministries of Christian education, faith formation, and discipleship often have a wide range of training and experience-from no formal theological education at all to specialized seminary degrees"--
Book Synopsis Civil Society, Education and Human Formation by : Janis John Talivaldis Ozolin
Download or read book Civil Society, Education and Human Formation written by Janis John Talivaldis Ozolin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-08-14 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education has been widely criticised as being too narrowly focused on skills, capacities and the transference of knowledge that can be used in the workplace. As a result of the dominance of economic rationalism and neo-liberalism, it has become commodified and marketed to potential customers. As a consequence, students have become consumers of an educational product and education has become an industry. There is deep dissatisfaction with these neo-liberal developments. What is missing is any conception of education as a key factor in the 'human formation' that will lead students to develop the virtues and values that they will need to not only lead successful lives, but also be responsible members of their communities - working for the common good and acting to transform them into just societies. This volume draws together a number of different perspectives on what is meant by 'human formation', argues that for a much richer conception of education, and addresses the lack of attention to human fulfilment. It also highlights the importance of philosophy in the articulation of novel ways of conceptualising education - providing alternatives to the dominant neo-liberal and economic rationalist models. The central question with which the book is concerned is a renewed understanding of education as the formation of persons, of civil society and the role of philosophy in fostering that renewal. In this volume there are a variety of voices from diverse traditions and cultures. Both East and West are represented and it might be expected that this would result in a divergence of opinion about the purpose of education. However, in spite of the diversity, there is some significant convergence in thinking about the ways in which education ought to serve the needs of both the individual and their communities. What is also particularly useful, and what is fresh about the essays presented here, is that there is also diversity in the philosophical approaches to the problem. This means that the convergence on the importance of 'human formation' as the cornerstone of education does not rely on a privileged philosophical method.

Book Synopsis The Book of Formation by : Ross Simonini
Download or read book The Book of Formation written by Ross Simonini and published by Melville House. This book was released on 2017 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This debut novel--told in interviews--spans 20 years in the rise and fall of the charismatic leader of a seductive self-help movement. In the 1990s, a talk show host leads the personality movement, an integrative approach to radical self-transformation. Mayah, the movement's architect and celebrity advocate, adopts a curious, wild child named Masha Isle. A guinea-pig for the movement, and the key to its future, Isle is the subject of the eight interviews that comprise this book. As the interviewer's objectivity disintegrates--even as the movement's legitimacy becomes increasingly suspect--he becomes obsessed with Masha. And all of that is thrown into question when tragedy strikes. The stunning debut of a new literary talent, and a fascinating take on the cult of personality: about celebrities need to destroy and recreate themselves to stay relevant, public personalities coming to belong to everyone, and about our need to see everyone as a kind of celebrity.

Book Synopsis The Formation of Character in Education by : James Arthur
Download or read book The Formation of Character in Education written by James Arthur and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-29 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Formation of Character: From Aristotle to the 21st Century offers an introduction to the foundations, practices, policies and issues of character formation historically. Following a chronological order, it charts the idea of character formation in the Western tradition by critically examining its precursors, origins, development, meanings and uses. The book is based on the premise that current conditions and debates around character formation cannot be fully understood without knowledge of the historical background. It introduces many of the debates character formation has generated in order to offer different perspectives and possibilities and uses Aristotle as a lens to gain a better understanding of some of these positions, particularly the theoretical goals of character formation. Chapters explore character education from the classical period through the medieval, early modern, enlightenment and Victorian eras to 20th century influences, ending with a discussion of contemporary policies and themes relating to character education. This book will appeal to academics, researchers, and post-graduate students in the fields of character and virtue education as well as the history of education.
Book Synopsis Psychology and Spiritual Formation in Dialogue by : Thomas M. Crisp
Download or read book Psychology and Spiritual Formation in Dialogue written by Thomas M. Crisp and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can the phenomena of the human mind be separated from the practices of spiritual formation—of growing to have the mind of Christ? Research into the nature of moral and spiritual change has revived in recent years in the worlds of psychology on one hand and theology and philosophy on the other. But psychology and spiritual formation draw upon distinct bodies of research and theory grounded in different methodologies, resulting in conversation that has suffered from a lack of interdisciplinary cross-pollination. Rooted in a year-long discussion held by Biola University's Center for Christian Thought (CCT), this volume bridges the gaps caused by professional specialization among psychology, theology, and philosophy. Each essay was forged out of an integrative discussion among theologians, psychologists, philosophers, New Testament scholars, educators, and pastors around the CCT seminar table. Topics that emerged included relational and developmental spirituality, moral virtue and judgment, and suffering and trauma. Psychology and Spiritual Formation in Dialogue speaks across disciplinary divides, fostering fruitful conversation for fresh insights into the nature and dynamics of personal spiritual change.

Book Synopsis Christian Character Formation by : Gifford A. Grobien
Download or read book Christian Character Formation written by Gifford A. Grobien and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-16 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian Character Formation investigates worship and formation in view of Christian anthropology, particularly union with Christ. Traditions which value justification by faith wrestle to some degree with how to describe and encourage ethical formation when salvation and righteousness are presented as gracious and complete. The dialectic of law and gospel has suggested to some that forgiveness and the advocacy of ethical norms contend with each other. By viewing justification and formation in light of Christ's righteousness which is both imputed and imparted, it is more readily seen that forgiveness and ethics complement each other. In justification, God converts a person, by which he grants new character. Traditional Lutheran anthropology says that this regeneration grants a new nature in mystical union with Jesus Christ. By exploring the Finnish Luther School led by Tuomo Mannermaa, Gifford A. Grobien explains how union with Christ imparts righteousness and the corresponding new character to the believer. Furthermore, as means of grace, the Word and sacraments are the means of establishing union with Christ and nurturing new character. Considering Oswald Bayer's "suffering" the word of Christ, Louis-Marie Chauvet's "symbolic order" and Bernd Wannenwetsch's understanding of worship as Christianity's unique "form of life," Grobien argues that worship practices are the foundational and determinative context in which grace is offered and in which the distinctively Christian ethos supports virtues consistent with Christian character. This understanding is also coordinated with Stanley Hauerwas's narrative ethics and Luther's teaching of virtue and good works in view of the Ten Commandments.
