The New Spiritual Exercises
Author: Louis M. Savary
Publisher: Paulist Press
ISBN: 0809146959
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
One can say that the last true revolution in spirituality came with the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius Loyola. Many devout Christians use the Exercises unchanged from their origins in the sixteenth century. In the twentieth century, another Jesuit, Pierre Teilhard he Chardin, developed a revolutionary spirituality by integrating science and faith, offering us a new way to understand the Word of God and the immensity of the Universal Christ. Unfortunately, he never spelled out how to practice this new understanding in our daily lives. Louis Savary offers an approach on how the Spiritual Exercises could be re-envisioned for contemporary believers, using the transformative spirituality of Teilhard. The New Spiritual Exercises provides a vision of how a twenty-first century Teilhard might have adapted Ignatius' classic work-in the hope that Teilhard himself would approve. Book jacket.

Transplantation Ethics
Author: Robert M. Veatch
Publisher: Georgetown University Press
ISBN: 1626161690
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 474
Book Description
Although the history of organ transplant has its roots in ancient Christian mythology, it is only in the past fifty years that body parts from a dead person have successfully been procured and transplanted into a living person. After fourteen years, the three main issues that Robert Veatch first outlined in his seminal study Transplantation Ethics still remain: deciding when human beings are dead; deciding when it is ethical to procure organs; and deciding how to allocate organs, once procured. However, much has changed. Enormous strides have been made in immunosuppression. Alternatives to the donation model are debated much more openly—living donors are used more widely and hand and face transplants have become more common, raising issues of personal identity. In this second edition of Transplantation Ethics, coauthored by Lainie F. Ross, transplant professionals and advocates will find a comprehensive update of this critical work on transplantation policies.

The Praxis of Suffering
Author: Rebecca S. Chopp
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1556352786
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
Liberation and political theologies have emerged powerfully in recent years, interrupting the way in which First World Christians both experience and understand their faith. Through an analysis of the cultural and ecclesial contexts of these theological movements, as well as a critical examination of four of their principal exponents--Gustavo Gutierrez, Johann Baptist Metz, Jose Miguez Bonino, and Jurgen Moltmann--the author demonstrates that political and liberation theologies represent a new model of theology, one that proffers a vision of Christian witness as a praxis of solidarity with suffering persons.
