A GOSPEL CONTRARY!
Author: Timothy F. Kauffman
Publisher: Amazon Book Marketing Pros
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 343
Book Description
One of the foremost and widely recognized Roman Catholic apologists, Patrick Madrid, published Answer Me This! "to provide factual, convincing answers to people’s questions about Catholicism." Upon inspection, we find his answers to be neither factual nor convincing. What Madrid has demonstrated for us, rather, is the typical approach of a Roman Catholic apologist: to overwhelm the ignorant and the naïve with sweeping claims, historical glosses and logical leaps that crumble under even modest scrutiny. When subjected to sober investigation, the Roman religion is exposed for the novelty it clearly is. Throughout his arguments, Madrid criticizes the inquirer for not being familiar with Scripture and history. Yet, it is Madrid who is ignorant—misreading and misunderstanding the source material, overplaying his hand and outrunning his coverage at every turn.

The Politics of Power & the Ordination of Women
Author: Adolphus Amadi-Azuogu
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 1602666024
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 438
Book Description
The politics of power in the church hinders the ordination of women today. Once ecclesiastical power is involved, ruling is also involved. Consequently, the altar has also become the throne, and this tempts men to suppress women. The author argues that Jesus refrained from using any gender-specific paradigms that would have excluded women from ritual leadership. (Christian)

Witness to Hope
Author: George Weigel
Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 0061758647
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 1228
Book Description
This definitive biography of Pope John Paul II explores his historic influence on the world stage: “Magnificent. A tremendous achievement” (Washington Post). As head of the Catholic Church from 1978 until his death in 2005, John Paul II was one of the world’s most transformational figures. With unprecedented cooperation from the Pope, as well as the people who knew and worked with him throughout his life, George Weigel offers a groundbreaking portrait of him as a man, a thinker, and a leader whose religious convictions defined a new approach to world politics—and changed the course of history. The Pope played a crucial yet underexplored role in some of the most momentous events of his time, including the collapse of European communism, the quest for peace in the Middle East, and the democratic transformation of Latin America. With an updated preface, this edition of Witness to Hope explains how this “man from a far country” did all of that, and much more—and what both his accomplishments and the unfinished business of his pontificate mean for the future of the Church and the world.

The Nuptial Mystery
Author: Angelo Scola
Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
ISBN: 9780802828316
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 454
Book Description
Translated by Michelle K. Borras The idea of love pervades our society, yet it is nearly impossible to answer the question What is love? especially as we witness the divorce of love from sexuality and of sexuality from procreation. Aware that many people today are skeptical about marriage, Angelo Cardinal Scola nevertheless suggests that only in the category of nuptial mystery do we find a way to adequately describe the phenomenon of love. A bright new leader in the Catholic Church, Cardinal Scola argues that the male-female relationship lies near the heart of what it means to bear the image of God. Scola's book explores the essential sexual differences that both separate and unite men and women, and it shows how men and women can realize their purpose in marriage or celibacy. Conversant with papal teaching and Catholic writers from Aquinas to von Balthasar, Cardinal Scola writes with a deep regard for marriage and the family. His Nuptial Mystery will leave readers with a thoroughly Christian appreciation for incarnate love.

Common Prayer Sixty Years After Vatican II
Author: Bryan Cones
Publisher: ATF Press
ISBN: 1923206559
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 88
Book Description
Sixty years ago the Second Vatican Council inaugurated what would be a sea change in the way Christians prayer, not only in the Catholic communion, but across Western Christianity. The intervening decades have seen some steps forward, some sticking points, and new challenges to common prayer. In this issue of the Australian Journal of Liturgy, Jenny O'Brien addresses one of those sticking points, the place of women in liturgical ministry. Joseph Grayland addresses the intersection of Christian liturgy and the climate crisis in conversation with Pope Francis' 2015 encyclical Laudato Si'. On the practical side, Nathan Nettleton reflects on several years of "online only" services in his own congregation, while Bryan Cones addresses presiding informed by the post-conciliar recovery of the assembly as the primary actor in the liturgy.

Women’s Ordination in the Catholic Church
Author: John O'Brien
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1725268051
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 203
Book Description
Women's Ordination in the Catholic Church argues that women can be validly ordained to ministerial office. O'Brien shows that claims by Roman dicasteries for an unbroken chain of authoritative tradition on the non-ordainability of women--a novel rather than traditional argument--are not historically supported. In the primitive Church, with the offices of deacon, presbyter, and bishop in process of development, women exercised ministries later understood as pertaining to those offices. The sub-apostolic period downplayed women's ministry for reasons of cultural adaptation, not because it was thought that fidelity to Christ required it. Furthermore, extensive epigraphical evidence, from a wide geographical area, references women deacons and presbyters during the first millennium. Restrictive developments in the concept of ordination from the twelfth century onwards do not negate how, before that, women were validly ordained according to contemporary ecclesial understanding. Repeated canonical prohibitions on ordaining women show both that women were being ordained and how those bans were very selectively implemented. These canons were a cultural practice in search of a theology, and the subsequent theological justifications for restricting ordination to men appealed to supposed female inferiority against the background of priesthood as eminence rather than service. O'Brien shows that the assertion of women's non-ordainability is a matter of canon law rather than doctrine. As such, that law can be reformed.
