Download or read book God Is Love written by Pope Benedict XVI and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2009-09-03 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone needs love. Everyone desires love. But not everyone understands love. In fact, love is probably the most misunderstood subject in history. In his first Encyclical, Pope Benedict helps to clarify the meaning of love. He examines the nature of various kinds of love — human love and divine love, eros, friendship, and charity. He writes beautifully and inspirationally of how man was made for love by the God who is love, the God who became one of us out of love — Jesus Christ. In the second part of the Encyclical, Benedict addresses the Church's practice of love. He examines the relationship between justice and charity, as well as the call of every Catholic to serve others in love. The Pope's "love letter" to mankind is remarkably accessible and timely.

Book Synopsis In Pandora's Jar by : Monica Silveira Cyrino
Download or read book In Pandora's Jar written by Monica Silveira Cyrino and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 1995 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study traces developments in early Greek poetry in the use of disease and madness-type imagery to express aspects of the erotic experience. Cyrino also works to illuminate the relationships between the early hexameter narrative poets and the archaic lyric poets who employ this imagery in their works. The arrangement of this study is conveniently chronological as to make the interrelations between the uses of this imagery by different authors in different periods more easily understandable. The author takes particular notice of the first instances of usage of disease and madness imagery for love, and how and where variations on the theme or new uses of the old image occur, and of the characteristic metaphorical habits of each poet. Contents: Preface; Introduction; Eros; Homer; Hesiod and the Homeric Hymn to Aphrodite; The Lyric Poets: Archiochos and Alkman; The Lyric Poets: Alkaios, Ibykos and Anakreon; Sappho; Conclusions; Bibliography; Index of Passages Cited; Index of Greek Words; General Index.

Book Synopsis At the Heart of the Gospel by : Christopher West
Download or read book At the Heart of the Gospel written by Christopher West and published by Image. This book was released on 2012-01-31 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sexual revolution brought a terribly distorted vision of the body and sex into the mainstream. How should Christians respond? With his illuminating Theology of the Body, Pope John Paul II challenged the modern world not to stop at the surface, but to enter the depth of the “great mystery” that the body and sex reveal: a mystery that lies at the heart of the Gospel itself. Since he first discovered John Paul II’s teaching in 1993, Christopher West has devoted himself to sharing its life-transforming message with the world. In this highly anticipated work, West leads us into the depth of Christ’s “nuptial union” with the Church, demonstrating how authentic Catholic teaching on the body and sex saves us from both the libertine perspective of popular culture and the cold puritanism that has sometimes infected Christianity. In the process, West provides a blueprint for reaching our sexually broken world in the “new evangelization.”
Book Synopsis Theology of His Body / Theology of Her Body by : Jason Evert
Download or read book Theology of His Body / Theology of Her Body written by Jason Evert and published by Ascension Press. This book was released on 2014-06-26 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theology of His Body and Theology of Her Body will feed your teens with liberating answers to their most pressing questions about love and sexuality. These books offer solid, relevant teachings in a language teens understand. But more than just presenting the truth itself, they deliver the tools teens need to achieve the greatness for which they were created. This book comes at a critical time, because tragically, many teens have forgotten their calling, or worse, have never heard it. As a result, they don’t know who they are or who and what they are meant to be for one another. This means they often resort to ‘using’ instead of authentically loving others and themselves. Theology of His Body and Theology of Her Body are two books in one. Teens are encouraged to not only learn the truth about their own body, but also to discover the beauty of the opposite sex, for it is in seeing the complementarity of the two sexes that one discovers the real meaning of his or her own body. This is the perfect companion to the Theology of the Body for Teens program, and is also ideal for teens new to the Theology of the Body. One thing is certain: anyone who reads this book will never look at his/her body, or anybody, in the same way again. In these books teens will discover: ● How to live a life that will make them happy and fulfilled. ● That their sexual desires are good and holy and actually designed by God. ● The amazing meaning of their body and that it is very good. ● Their true calling and purpose in life. ● How to be the man or woman of greatness they are destined to be. ● The meaning and power behind the words Beauty, Femininity, Strength and Mission. ● What it means to be created male and female in God’s image of love. ● The ways we have messed up God’s original plan for us and how to fully restore it. Note: this is a unique flip book where you have TOB for His Body on the cover, then you flip it over and it is TOB for Her Body, so 2 in 1.
Book Synopsis A New Introduction to Theology by : Richard Bourne
Download or read book A New Introduction to Theology written by Richard Bourne and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-09-17 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Encountering theology for the first time is exciting, but it can also be daunting. Some struggle to connect with doctrinal discussion they perceive to be abstract or abstruse. Others may find the scope of theology, and the connections between different theological issues, dizzying. In order to address these difficulties and keep the initial excitement alive, A New Introduction to Theology offers a range of accessible, practical, experiential and interactive encounters with the major elements of academic Christian theology. The guiding motif of this book is the claim that theology is full-bodied thought. The phrase 'full-bodied' shows both the richness of the experience of theology and its nature as a thoroughly embodied encounter with ways of knowing God and God's ways with the world. This motif allows the authors to bring together topics ranging from theology through the arts, sexuality and the body and the nature of the church's everyday life, to mystical theology, spirituality, political action and ecology. Working imaginatively with the five senses and the notions of loving and resting, each chapter provides a range of activities, guided discussions and reflections on key theological texts, authors and issues. This is a unique introduction to the key innovative and interdisciplinary elements from contemporary theology, ideal for individual reflection, classroom work, or flexible and distributed learning.
Book Synopsis Agape and the Four Loves with Nietzsche, Father, and Q by : David L. Goicoechea
Download or read book Agape and the Four Loves with Nietzsche, Father, and Q written by David L. Goicoechea and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2013-03-13 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Goicoechea explains Nietzsche's thesis that the agapeic love of Jesus is humankind's highest affirmation, even for sinners like the author's father, Joe Goicoechea, who lived it out existentially. Already before the Q scholars, Nietzsche saw this love as the essence of the Sermon on the Mount and based his philosophy upon it. Throughout the Catholic tradition agape fulfilled the affection of Empedocles, the eros of Plato, the friendship of Aristotle, and the agape of Plotinus. While, as Anders Nygren shows, modernists protested such syntheses, now postmodernists once again let agape and the four loves contribute to one another.
Book Synopsis Our Moral Life in Christ (College Edition) by : Peter V. Armenio
Download or read book Our Moral Life in Christ (College Edition) written by Peter V. Armenio and published by Midwest Theological Forum. This book was released on 2020-06-26 with total page 713 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This college edition of Our Moral Life in Christ by Rev. Peter Armenio focuses on the Person and teachings of Christ and examines the moral life from that perspective. Christian morality is not only for "knowing," but also for "living." This is a practical manner in which the spirit of Christ is made manifest in the world, thus contributing to the improvement of society. Based on the Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes, Our Moral Life in Christ presents the teachings of the Magisterium on moral issues in modern society. Inspired by recent papal documents, especially the encyclical The Splendor of Truth, and the Catechism of the Catholic Church, this book provides the moral formation that will help the reader to become more Christlike in service of love and in the journey toward personal perfection as well as providing the foundation to pursue advanced theological studies.
