Download or read book Touching the Altar written by Carol M. Bechtel and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2008-01-14 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to be in the presence of God's holiness? How can it affect us whether we seek it out or stumble upon it? Can it truly change our very reality to encounter it? The essayists in this volume explore these questions at the heart of Christian worship, considering the oft-neglected Old Testament as essential to understand our purpose in worship. Following the structure of the Hebrew canon -- beginning with the Pentateuch, moving through to the Psalms, then wisdom literature -- each chapter considers a separate aspect of worship, from theater to the Sabbath to sacred space, offering new inspiration. In the final essay Carol Bechtel "rereads the book of Job through the lens of our human limitations (as opposed to the usual theme of theodicy)," with compelling applications for both life and worship. Each of these essays concludes with two appropriately themed hymns and a "For Further Reading" list. Five of the seven contain sidebars that illustrate and enrich key points. Evocative woodcut artwork by Margaret Adams Parker provides a striking backdrop to the text. Taken together, these essays testify powerfully to the belief that the Old Testament is not only valuable but also essential to "whole" and fully foundational preaching and worship. Written primarily by Old Testament professors, Touching the Altar will make an engaging supplemental text for introductory or elective Old Testament courses and will also go far toward providing deeper worship for any Christian.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prayer, especially prayer as a faith community, is essential to any kind of ministry. This is perhaps even more true for catechists and religion teachers, who are called to be ministers of the word. 30 Rituals and Prayer Services for Catechist and Teacher Meetings provides deeply moving and meaningful ways for catechists and teachers to celebrate their ministry. These beautifully prepared rituals and services, rich in Scripture and liturgy, can lead participants into a profound encounter with God and with one another. Themes include liturgical seasons, aspects of the catechetical ministry, the beatitudes, the sacraments, and more. One form of prayer used in these services is lectio divina, an ancient method for praying the Scriptures. Also unique to this book are rituals based on the rites of the liturgy, including those used in the RCIA process. These services can easily be adapted to the needs of your group. Each service is a complete prayer experience suitable for meetings as well as for days of prayer and reflection. For catechetical leaders, Catholic school principals, catechists, and religion teachers, 30 Rituals and Prayer Services for Catechist and Teacher Meetings is a must-have resource. Book jacket.

Book excerpt: What happens to the Responsorial Psalm in the Sunday liturgy? How can it help us pray the Sunday readings? How can it help in planning the liturgy? The Responsorial Psalm is the most neglected part of the Liturgy of the Word, yet it can be the key to all the rest. Its intent is to help bring the message of the other readings into our lives. This book addresses the riches of the Responsorial Psalm for every Sunday of the three-year cycle. It explains the psalm genre, offers exposition on the meaning and beauty of the psalm itself, and comments on the relationship of the Responsorial Psalm to the other readings. It is the book for anyone who wants to understand and appreciate the Sunday readings -- preachers, catechists, liturgists and all the people in the pews.

Download or read book Reading the Sermons of Thomas Aquinas: A Beginner's Guide written by Randall B. Smith and published by Emmaus Academic. This book was released on 2016-12-01 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preaching was immensely important in the medieval Church, and Thomas Aquinas expended much time and effort preaching. Today, however, Aquinas’s sermons remain relatively unstudied and underappreciated. This is largely because their sermo modernus style, typical of the thirteenth century, can appear odd and inaccessible to the modern reader. In Reading the Sermons of Thomas Aquinas, Randall Smith guides the reader through Aquinas’s sermons, explaining their form and content. In the process, one comes to appreciate the sermons in their rhetorical brilliance, beauty, and profound spiritual depth while simultaneously being initiated into a fascinating world of thought concerning Scripture, language, and the human mind. The book also includes analytical outlines for all of Aquinas’s extant sermons. Reading the Sermons of Thomas Aquinas: A Beginner’s Guide is an indispensable volume for those interested in the thought of Aquinas, in the intellectual and spiritual milieu in which he worked, and in the manifold ways of preaching the Gospel message.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most breathtaking prophecies in the Bible is the promise of the new heavens and earth. In that glorious day the widespread effects of the fall and the curse will be undone. Man will experience unbroken, utopian blessing in his eternal home. But how will the new heavens and earth come about? Will the current heavens and earth cease to exist and be replaced by a second ex nihilo creation as many Bible teachers insist? Or will the current earth be refurbished by earthquake and fire from heaven even as the last earth was refurbished by the flood? In this volume I present several arguments—such as historical precedent, the character of God, the eternality of the earth, and the eternal nature of the kingdom established at the second coming—which combine to make a formidable case that the new heavens and earth will be the current heavens and earth refurbished.
