Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus’ saving Paschal work continues today in the liturgy and sacraments. They have the power to sanctify and beatify those who engage the liturgy with proper minds and hearts. In this comprehensive and accessible book, Christopher Carstens opens up the ritual elements mystagogically: that is, he leads participants from what they can sense—a calendar day, a musical instrument, and word—to what is otherwise undetectable: Jesus Christ. He examines the core meaning of each liturgical element in creation, in the culture, in the Old Testament, in Christ, and in heaven. This book is an excellent resource for pastors, seminarians, permanent deacons and deacon candidates, lay ministers, and parish liturgy coordinators.
Book Synopsis The Spiritual Meaning of the Liturgy by : Goffredo Boselli
Download or read book The Spiritual Meaning of the Liturgy written by Goffredo Boselli and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2014-09-08 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I am increasingly convinced that the decisive question that demands an answer from us is not so much how believers experience the liturgy, but whether believers live from the liturgy they celebrate.”With these few words Goffredo Boselli captures the essence of this present work. Believers can celebrate the liturgy throughout their lifetimes without ever really drawing their lives from it. And this is true of all believers—laity, clergy, or monastics. More than a century after the start of the liturgical movement and half a century after the start of the postconciliar liturgical reform, we must ask the difficult question of whether the liturgy has or has not become the source of the spiritual life of believers. For only by living from the liturgy can they receive the nourishment necessary to maintain a life of faith in today’s world. In The Spiritual Meaning of the Liturgy, Goffredo Boselli—one of Europe’s foremost liturgical theologians—offers an accessible and important guide for both scholars and interested laypeople to understand the meaning that permeates the liturgy and its implications for daily living. Readers will find here a resource to help understand the liturgy more fully, interiorize it more effectively, and live it more authentically.
Download or read book The Gospel Life written by Neal Tew and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the age of 22, Neal Tew had questions. Raised nominally Catholic and now a recent Harvard graduate, he wondered whether faith in God could withstand intellectual and existential scrutiny. He wondered whether God really existed. He earned an undergraduate minor in the Comparative Study of Religions and wrote an Honors Thesis on Anglican priest and poet George Herbert. But those studies did not bring him the certitude he sought. While taking graduate classes in Theology in Paris, Neal discovered two new monastic orders in France. Here he found the key that had eluded him. These men and women were staking their lives upon the tenets of the Christian faith. The intellectual positions they held were backed up by real sacrifices and intense life commitments. Theirs was a faith lived out in the day to day. A faith that brought Neal close in spirit to the shores of Galilee.Neal decided to drop his nets and follow the monastic way of life. To learn, as best he could, from the monks. He would ultimately spend three years in different monastic communities, observing their way of life, living their life and documenting it in photographs that offer an intimate look into the daily experience and practice of a monk. In the end, Neal's journey led him to enter the novitiate of one of the monasteries where he lived. A novitiate is the extended period of training and learning offered to young people who think they may have a vocation to become a monk. Neal's journey took him there and back again. What he learned has relevance for all of us. This book tells the story. Three years among the monks.
