This collection of essays marks 150 years of study and reflection since the Dominican Priory in Tallaght was founded. There, indeed, friars, together with sisters, laity, and contemplative nuns, members of the family that is the Order of Preachers, explore the gospel that unites them in prayer and preaching.
A range of theological views is represented here in essays that are themselves examples of good preaching. It examines worship and preaching from a number of theological perspectives; Catholic, Baptist, Anglican, Uniting Church and Greek Orthodox.
Thirty-seven Dominican theologians, women and men, reflect on their experience of entering into the mystery of God and sharing the Good News with others -- all this collaboratively, in a spirit expressed by Gustavo Gutierrez: 'For me, to do theology is to write a love letter to God, to the Church and to the people to whom I belong.'
