Evangelical Catholicism: Deep Reform in the 21st-Century Church
By George Weigel. 2013
The Catholic Church is on the threshold of a bold new era in its two-thousand year history. As the curtain…
comes down on the Church defined by the 16th-century Counter-Reformation, the curtain is rising on the Evangelical Catholicism of the third millennium: a way of being Catholic that comes from over a century of Catholic reform; a mission-centered renewal honed by the Second Vatican Council and given compelling expression by Blessed John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI. The Gospel-centered Evangelical Catholicism of the future will send all the people of the Church into mission territory every day--a territory increasingly defined in the West by spiritual boredom and aggressive secularism. Confronting both these cultural challenges and the shadows cast by recent Catholic history, Evangelical Catholicism unapologetically proclaims the Gospel of Jesus Christ as the truth of the world. It also molds disciples who witness to faith, hope, and love by the quality of their lives and the nobility of their aspirations. Thus the Catholicism of the 21st-century and beyond will be a culture-forming counterculture, offering all men and women of good will a deeply humane alternative to the soul-stifling self-absorption of postmodernity. Drawing on thirty years of experience throughout the Catholic world, from its humblest parishes to its highest levels of authority, George Weigel proposes a deepening of faith-based and mission-driven Catholic reform that touches every facet of Catholic life--from the episcopate and the papacy to the priesthood and the consecrated life; from the renewal of the lay vocation in the world to the redefinition of the Church’s engagement with public life; from the liturgy to the Church’s intellectual life. Lay Catholics and clergy alike should welcome the challenge of this unique moment in the Church’s history, Weigel urges. Mediocrity is not an option, and all Catholics, no matter what their station in life, are called to live the evangelical vocation into which they were baptized: without compromise, but with the joy, courage, and confidence that comes from living this side of the Resurrection.Moral Combat: How Sex Divided American Christians and Fractured American Politics
By R. Marie Griffith. 2017
From an esteemed scholar of American religion and sexuality, a sweeping account of the century of religious conflict that produced…
our culture wars Gay marriage, transgender rights, birth control--sex is at the heart of many of the most divisive political issues of our age. The origins of these conflicts, historian R. Marie Griffith argues, lie in sharp disagreements that emerged among American Christians a century ago. From the 1920s onward, a once-solid Christian consensus regarding gender roles and sexual morality began to crumble, as liberal Protestants sparred with fundamentalists and Catholics over questions of obscenity, sex education, and abortion. Both those who advocated for greater openness in sexual matters and those who resisted new sexual norms turned to politics to pursue their moral visions for the nation. Moral Combat is a history of how the Christian consensus on sex unraveled, and how this unraveling has made our political battles over sex so ferocious and so intractable.Wartime Schooling and Education Policy in the Second World War
By Sarah Van Ruyskensvelde. 2016
This book deals with the development of private secondary schooling during the Second World War in Belgium. It focuses on…
how the German occupier used education to gain acceptance of the regime, and discusses the attitudes of Belgian education authorities, schools, teachers and pupils towards the German occupation. Suggesting that the occupation forced Belgian education authorities, such as the Roman Catholic Church, to take certain positions, the book explores the wartime experiences and memories of pupils and teachers. It explains that the German Culture Department was relatively weak in establishing total control over education and that Catholic schools were able to maintain their education project during the war. However, the book also reveals that, in some cases, the German occupation did not need total control over education in order to find support for some authoritarian ideas. As such, Van Ruyskenvelde's analysis presents a nuanced view of the image of the Catholic Church, schools, teachers and pupils as mere victims of war.The Wonder of Christmas Youth Study Book: Once You Believe, Anything Is Possible (Wonder of Christmas series)

By Martin Schlag, Domènec Melé. 2015
This book offers different perspectives on Humanism as developed by Catholic Social Teaching, with a particular focus on its relevance…
in economics and business. The work is composed of three sections, covering what is meant by Christian Humanism, how it links with economic activity, and its practical relevance in the business world of today. It reviews the historical development of Christian Humanism and discusses the arguments which justify it in the current cultural context and how it contributes to human development. The book argues that the current recognition of human dignity and the existence of innate human rights are both ultimately rooted in Christian Humanism. It sets out the importance of the concept for economic activities, and how Christian Humanism can serve as a metaphysical foundation and ethical basis for a social market economy. Applying Christian Humanism to business leads to the centrality of the person in organizations and to seeing the company as a community of persons working together for the common good. Three thought-provoking case studies illustrate the wide-reaching positive impacts of applying Christian Humanism in the organization.Spirit of Vatican II: A History of Catholic Reform in America
By Colleen Mcdannell. 2011
The author's mother, Margaret, was a 34-year-old mother of two young children in 1962, when the Second Vatican Council began…
a round of broad reforms which transformed the daily lives of practicing American Catholics. For Catholics of Margaret's generation, who lived through the Great Depression and the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Vatican II was a watershed event. Writing in an accessible style, McDannell (history, religious studies, University of Utah-Salt Lake City) uses the story of her mother's life as a unifying narrative thread to demonstrate the lasting legacies of Vatican II, showing how the reforms brought Margaret, and millions of other ordinary women like her, into more intimate contact with the ritual and theological life of the church. The author's popular writings on religion have appeared in the New York Times Magazine and BookForum. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc. , Portland, OR (booknews. com)
