Download or read book Metanoia written by Brother John of Taize and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can one live an authentically Christian life? Although many books and articles delineate the content of the Gospel message, the form or shape of an existence based on faith has not been studied as thoroughly. To use a language correctly, it is not enough to know the vocabulary; one must have a good grasp of its grammar. This book attempts to deepen our knowledge of the grammar of the Christian life starting from the notion of metanoia. Generally translated as "repentance" or "conversion," the word has in fact a much richer significance: it describes a total reorientation and transformation of our being, never accomplished once and for all, through the action of the Spirit of the risen Christ. Metanoia takes us out of our self-centered outlook and our limited and self-interested actions and brings us into God's today, where we become witnesses to a real Presence, that of the universal Body of Christ.

Book Synopsis Journals of Brother Roger of Taizé by : Brother Roger
Download or read book Journals of Brother Roger of Taizé written by Brother Roger and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2024-01-01 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roger Schutz-Marsauche, known as Brother Roger, is one of the most influential figures in Christianity in the twentieth century. He was founder and first prior of the Taizé Community in France, where tens of thousands of young Christians flock each year for their distinctive music and contemplative style of worship, spending time in prayer and reflection. But it is the community of monastic brothers, from differing Christian traditions and over twenty-five different countries, who makes this contemplative experience possible. They stand as a ‘parable of community’ and as a sign of unity in the midst of a divided world and a divided Christianity. This first volume of Brother Roger’s journals covers his arrival in Taizé during World War II through to the 1960s, in which young adults found the hill of Taizé in their searching. These collected reflections on personal and current events offer an illuminating portrait of the founder of Taizé, bringing to light key aspects of the community putting into practice the vision that inspired him.

Download or read book Journals of Brother Roger of Taizé, Volume 2 written by Brother Roger of Taize and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-04-20 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second volume of the personal journals of Roger Schutz-Marsauche (1915-2005), known as Brother Roger, the founder and first prior of the Taize Community in France, an ecumenical monastic community that strives to live as a "parable of community" in a divided world. Taize is known especially for its music and contemplative style of worship, and as a place where tens of thousands of young Christians flock each year to spend a time of prayer and reflection. This volume covers the years from 1969 to 1972 and is centered on the genesis and first preparations of a "Council of Youth." The project was inspired by the crisis in the Catholic Church in the wake of the Second Vatican Council, and the slowdown of ecumenism after the glowing hopes kindled in the wake of the Council. It was an attempt to take seriously the aspirations of the younger generation and orient them in a positive direction. Brother Roger also talks in these pages about the ongoing life of the community, his personal spiritual journey, and many important encounters that took place in those eventful years.

This book was released on 2024-06-04 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third volume of the personal journals of Roger Schutz-Marsauche (1915–2005) covers the years from 1972 to 1976. Brother Roger was the founder and first prior of the Taizé Community in France, an ecumenical monastic community known for its music and contemplative style of worship, and for its work with young adults around the world. This volume covers the final preparations and the opening of the “Council of Youth,” an attempt to take seriously the desire for renewal of church and society of the younger generations and to orient it in a positive direction. Brother Roger also speaks of the life of the community and its many visitors, his personal spiritual journey, and the trips he took to different parts of the world, notably, at the end of 1976, to a poor neighborhood of Calcutta with an intercontinental team of young people.
Book Synopsis Journals of Brother Roger of Taize by : Brother Roger of Taize
Download or read book Journals of Brother Roger of Taize written by Brother Roger of Taize and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-12-03 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the definitive history of Christianity in the twentieth century is written, one of the key figures will certainly be that of Roger Schutz-Marsauche (1915–2005), known as Brother Roger, the founder and first prior of the Taizé Community in France. Taizé is familiar to many across the world for its music and contemplative style of worship, and as a place where tens of thousands of young Christians flock each year to spend a time of prayer and reflection. What is less well-known is the underlying reality that makes all this possible: a monastic community of brothers from over twenty-five different countries and different Christian traditions striving to live as a “parable of community,” a sign of unity in the midst of divided Christians and a world torn apart. This first volume of Brother Roger’s journals covers the years from his arrival in Taizé during World War II to the turbulent 1960s, when young adults began making their way to the hill of Taizé in their searching. These collected insights, reflections, and accounts of personal encounters and current events offer what is perhaps the best portrait of the founder of Taizé. They bring to light key aspects of the community which continues to attempt to put into practice the vision that inspired him.
Book Synopsis The Younger Evangelicals by : Robert E. Webber
Download or read book The Younger Evangelicals written by Robert E. Webber and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2002-10-01 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert E. Webber has led worship workshops in every major city in the United States and Canada. Through his conversations and contacts with a network of emerging church leaders he calls the "younger evangelicals," Webber sees how this new generation and their style of leadership is bringing change and renewal to the evangelical church. These leaders, who include those young in spirit as well as young in age, have important insights to offer all generations faced with "doing church" in a rapidly changing postmodern culture. The Younger Evangelicals explores the characteristics of these emerging leaders and provides an outlet for their stories. Beginning with a brief overview of twentieth-century evangelicalism, Webber examines what is different about the twenty-first century younger evangelicals' way of thinking about faith and practicing church. He allows them-Ph.D.s and laypeople-to speak in their own words on issues such as communication, theology, apologetics, pastoral leadership, evangelism, worship, and spiritual formation. Thought provoking, energizing, and timely, The Younger Evangelicals is a landmark book for pastors and church leaders, culture watchers, ministry students, and worship leaders who want to prepare for and respond to the new evangelical awakening brought on by our changing cultural context.
Book Synopsis A Community Called Taize by : Jason Brian Santos
Download or read book A Community Called Taize written by Jason Brian Santos and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2010-01-09 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taizé--the word is strangely familiar to many throughout the contemporary church. Familiar, perhaps, because the chanted prayers of Taizé are well practiced in churches throughout the world. Strangely, however, because so little is known about Taizé--from its historic beginnings to how the word itself is pronounced. The worship of the Taizé community, as it turns out, is best understood in the context of its greater mission. On the day Jason Brian Santos arrived in the Taizé community its leader was brutally murdered before his eyes. Instead of making Santos want to leave, the way the community handled this tragedy made him long to stay and learn more about this group of people who could respond to such evil with grace and love. In this book he takes us on a tour of one of the world's first ecumenical monastic orders, from its monastic origins in the war-torn south of 1940s France to its emerging mission as a pilgrimage site and spiritual focal point for millions of young people throughout the world. In A Community Called Taizé you'll meet the brothers of the order and the countless visitors and volunteers who have taken upon themselves a modest mission: pronouncing peace and reconciliation to the church and the world.

Book Synopsis Fifteen Seconds without Sorrow by : Shim Bo-Seon
Download or read book Fifteen Seconds without Sorrow written by Shim Bo-Seon and published by Parlor Press LLC. This book was released on 2016-08-01 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like many younger Korean poets, SHIM BO-SEON writes in an allusive, indirect style about topics that are in themselves familiar, eating rice, taking off clothes, living in an apartment block, struggling with human relationships. He captures some sparkling moments of joys and sorrows, hopes and frustrations that have been concealed in daily life in rather modest and witty words. The circular movements of concealment and revelation of the mystery that an individual experiences are evoked in turn, always lightly. As a poet-critic, Shim fills his lines with the melodies of plain speech, with subtle thoughts about relationships in the world. Shim made his poetic debut in 1994, but he only published his first collection fourteen years later in 2008. FIFTEEN SECONDS WITHOUT SORROW is a translation of that first volume, containing the poet’s earliest, freshest poems.
