Faith Questions: Searching for meaning and hope
The conversations in this book reveal some of the anger, the sadness, the disaffection of ordinary people in today's Church, as well as their enduring search for hope and meaning.
Vatican Council II: The Basic Sixteen Documents
The Church's twenty-one ecumenical councils have been crucial to its understanding of its biblical heritage.
Their absorption into the day - to day practice of individual Christians has always taken time. And Vatican II has been no exception. Hence the importance of this completely revised translation of Vatican II's sixteen documents, without commentary or additional documentation, and in an inclusive language.
The Word is Flesh and Blood: The Eucharist and Sacred Scripture
Reflections from an international team of scholars on the place of the Old Testament in Christian worship, on the Psalms, and on the New Testament, especially the Gospels.
Preaching Justice: Dominican Contributions to Social Ethics in the Twentieth Century
Preaching Justice: Dominican Contributions to Social Ethics in the Twentieth Century
Preface by: Gustavo Gutierrez OP
Focusses on the work for justice and the contribution to social ethics of the Dominican friars in the twentieth century, continuing on into the twenty-first.
To Praise, to Bless, to Preach: Words of Grace and Truth
To Praise, To Bless, to Preach shows how Christian faith, in the Domincan tradition, takes flesh; and proposes a dialogue with society in a search where everyone has a stake: the search for meaning and hope.
The last four world - leaders (Masters) of the Dominican Order served throughout the excitements and hesitations of the forty years from the opening of the Second Vatican Council to the start of the twenty - first century.
Sing a New Song
Sing a New Song was Timothy Radcliffe’s first book and not surprisingly sold out a number of times.
In this collection we taste the easy eloquence of a great writer and teacher. Radcliffe can mix an image of Jurassic Park with the symbolism of the Last Supper; he succeeds in outlining how human communities may be rebuilt on the foundation of truth, despite inevitable conflicts. These pages outline an exciting project for all who seek spiritual wellbeing, at individual and community levels.
Justice, Peace, and Domincans, 1216-2001
This book looks at how one Catholic religious order - very old, yet persistently in the forefront of change - has responded to justice and peace issues in the course of 785 years: the 785 years from its foundation to the start of the Third Millennium.
The individuals portrayed here pursued this commitment in extraordinarily diverse ways.
Preaching Justice Volume II - Contributions of Dominican Sisters to Social Ethics in the Twentieth Century
Preface by Mary McAleese
Preaching Justice II presents some of the key ways in which Dominican sisters have promoted justice and contributed to social ethics in the twentieth century, continuing on into the twenty-first.
It is a companion volume to Preaching Justice I, published in 2007, which focused on the work for justice and the contribution to social ethics of the Dominican friars over the same time period.
Dominicans in Africa: A History of the Dominican Friars in Sub Saharan Africa
Dominicans have been in sub - Sahara Africa since the fifteenth century. Today, the Order has communities in a dozen African countries. The story is recounted here by many voices, the majority from Africa itself while the rest have had long associations with that continent.
The Way of the Cross
Illustrations by Maria Del Zamora
The Way of the Cross offers reflections on the fourteen traditional stopping-places or stations which mark out a path by which Christians may walk in the footsteps of Jesus, identifying themselves spiritually with him.
Included in part two is a resource for more leisurely reflection on each station providing scriptural texts, and it brings us into the company of saints and mystics who have travelled this path before us.
The Mysteries of Light: The New Rosary as Gospel Prayer
The decision of Pope John Paul II to insert five new mysteries, the mysteries, makes the Rosary a prayer even more centred than before on Christ as revealed in the Scripture. The aim of The Mysteries of Light is to enable people to read aright the texts for these mysteries and thus to be able to pray them more fruitfully.
