Book Synopsis St. Agnes Church by : Anne O'hare Mccormick
Download or read book St. Agnes Church written by Anne O'hare Mccormick and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-02-16 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Romanesque Success. - In a book, "St. Agnes Church, Cleveland, Ohio." whose numerous illustrations validate the text, Anne O'Hare McCormick tells how John T. Comes of Pittsburgh, built one of his most beautiful architectural accomplishments, translating " into words the things that St. Agnes' has to say, in its architecture, its decoration and its symbolism." It details the realization for the Rev. Dr. Gilbert P. Jennings, pastor of St. Agnes', of "a plan that would meet squarely all modern and practical requirements, that would retain the flavor and spirit of the best Romanesque traditions and yet give to Cleveland a church of some distinction and originality, expressing the ancient and modern continuity of the Church, and also the power of her adaptability to the language of the day." The photographic reproductions of the building easily persuade the reader that " no passerby, however casual, could escape the impression that it was conceived in faith and built in love." Further explanation in regard to the generosity that built and paid for all this asserts that, " In twenty-seven years there has never been a personal solicitation nor a public record of contributions." Countless weary and anxious rectors, no doubt, would be glad to have Dr. Jennings show them how he accomplished this result.-- Mr. Comes has out a new and enlarged edition of his " Catholic Art and Architecture " (the author, Pittsburgh) an excellent lecture he gives to seminarians and parish groups, which has already been favorably noticed in these columns. The brochure contains fifty pages of fine pictures to illustrate the text. -America, Vol. 24

Book excerpt: Atheistic and agnostic writers are aggressively attacking traditional religious beliefs. Philosopher and prolific writer Peter Kreeft is up to the challenge in this work of popular apologetics aimed at both teens and adults. The masterful Kreeft tackles sixteen crucial issues about the deeper meaning of life. The questions that Kreeft explores range from, "Is faith reasonable?," Can you prove there is a God?", and "Why is Jesus different?," to "Why is sex so confusing?," "Why is there evil?", and "Why must we die?" Kreeft provides thoughtful, lucid, and persuasive answers for believers, unbelievers, and seekers to consider. As always, Kreeft is insightful, inspiring, and entertaining. This book is ideal for those exploring faith for the first time, as well as for confirmation and religious education classes. It's an intellectual and spiritual feast! This is vintage Kreeft. "The good news of the Gospel is as exciting as a murder mystery. For at its heart there is a murder: the murder of God two thousand years ago in Jerusalem. And this God is the greatest of mysteries: who He is and why He put us here, and why He came here and what His plans are for us. The story is literally a matter of life or death – eternal life or death." — Peter Kreeft "Be ready to give a reason for the hope that is in you." — 1 Peter 3:15

Book Synopsis The Liturgy of Life by : Ricky Manalo
Download or read book The Liturgy of Life written by Ricky Manalo and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2014-12-30 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyday worship practices—from praying the rosary to moments of recognizing the beauty of God's creation, from being moved by the power of music to praying Vespers on an iPad—not only take place at different locations and during different days of the week but also dynamically interact with one another. The Liturgy of Life examines the interrelationship between the practice of Sunday Eucharist and the many nonofficial worship practices that mark the everyday lives of Christians who continually negotiate the boundaries of official teaching on liturgy. Drawing on the writings of theologians and sociologists of lived religion and data from an ethnographic research project, this timely work stretches the contextual horizon of liturgical scholarship and presents a provocative and dynamic paradigm of Christian worship for the twenty-first century.
