General Intercessions
Fr. CAMILO J. MArIVOET, CICM

Colors of the Soul


MArjOrIE I. GUIngOnA

The message of Fr. Camilo J. Marivoet, CICM, is encouraging: Think of your communities, their needs and aspirations, the stage of their faith, their education, their religious and secular culture. Adapt yourself to them. Give them the Good News to the extent they can digest and live it. Bring them closer to God and help them to see and live how near God is to them in their everyday life. This book offers models that can make our Eucharistic celebrations much more pastoral, much closer to the lives of the people, as you keep in mind the nature of the different parts of the Mass.

How to Love Again


JOHn MOnBOUrQUETTE

Moving from Grief to Growth


Are you suffering from a deep loss in your life? How to Love Again is a book that can offer you comfort in a time of despair. It is intended to accompany you on the journey you are about to make. You may want to read it from cover to cover, or meditate on it, or refer back to those passages that most inspire you. The author describes the kind of healing that comes after loss: "In the same way the physical body deals with physical wound, the emotional body begins a healing process the moment the emotional trauma occurs. Allow the natural wisdom of your healing system to come to your rescue. Eventually the pain will subside, and you will then be more aware of life around you, more open to happiness, more fully human once again."

As it is the ethos of EWA (Ecclesia of Women in Asia) to create a forum for inclusive, participatory and meaningful dialogue among its delegates, the exchanges during the conference signaled to the participants that this dialogue extends beyond the conference itself. There was energy and inspiration to bring back to their respective places, countries and ministry the insights generated by the conference. Those of us who were privileged to be at the conference realized that we could not but engage in the ongoing dialogue and reflection on the vital role of Asian women theologians in the academe and in the grassroots to find more creative ways of engaging in the praxis of peace that leads to liberation.

Fundamental Theology of the Forms of Christian Life


JOs CrIsTO REY GArcI PArEDEs & DOMIngO MOrALEDA MOLErO

Vatican II has taught us to understand the Church as a community of convoked people, where every form of Christian life is mutually developed and vivified. Vatican II has placed the foundation for an "existencial ecclesiology" or an ecclesiology of the forms of Christian life or a "theological-charismatic anthropology."

Jesus Christ

According to the Pope Pope Benedict XVI


GIULIAnO VIgInI & CATALInO ArEVALO, SJ

From the very beginning of his papacy, Pope Benedict XVI has made as his own top priority: to reintroduce the fundamentals of the Christian Gospel and of the Catholic tradition to todays Catholic faithful and to the contemporary world. It has been noted, again and again, that the present Holy Father is, by his own intent, a pope of the basics. Surely at the very top of the list of these basics is to know Jesus Christ and to have an authentic personal relationship with him. As the original editor of the present book (Giuliano Vigini) points out: The experience, the proclaiming, and giving witness to the mystery of salvation revealed to us in Jesus Christ, the Lord and Savior of all, is at the center of all the teaching of the Church.

What, Then, Is Liturgy?


Musings and Memoir
AnscAr J. CHUpUngcO

Fr. Anscar Chupungco fondly recalls his first class as a student at the Pontifical Liturgical Institute in 1965. Professor Salvatore Marsili-famed theologian, liturgist, and cofounder of the institute entered the lecture hall, and after a prolonged and awkward silence finally asked, And so, what is liturgy? This seemingly simple question underlies Chupungcos untiring love for liturgy and his lifetime of searching for answers. His is a passion deeply rooted in tradition, which is evident in this volume. Relying on Scripture, patristic writers, and conciliar and postconciliar documents and with great skill, prudence, and the fundamental virtue of obedience he carefully examines current liturgical trends that are the subject of fierce debate. At a time when we focus so intently on the debate itself, Chupungco cautions us to remember: At the end of the day what matters are not personal opinions but what truly contributes to making the prayer of the Church an encounter with the person of Christ. It is this most sacred encounter that is at the heart of What, Then, Is Liturgy? And it is this encounter that will lead us day by day to the ultimate heavenly liturgy, our eternal and perfect offering of praise to God.

Word-Mission (vol.1) Pentateuch: That They May Have Life


EDITED BY WJOsEp M. ABELLA, CMF

Meditations on the Mass


AnscAr J. CHUpUngcO, OSB

This book is a journey made with other people. It recognizes the multiplicity of initiatives that other groups have already initiated in the Church like propose new methods on how best to walk with the Word and make it as a basis for life and mission. The book makes some proposals on how to profit from this Word-Mission project. It underlines the following elements that would give unique perspective to our study of the Word: (a) To integrate the daily reading of the Word in the life and rhythm of the individual and of the group who wish to make this journey. (b) To go beyond the mere reading of the Word in its critical and textual level so that it will truly be a spiritual reading of Gods Word. Thus a passage has to be made from what the Bible says to what does it tell me and what does it tell us. (c) To read the Word in view of service, that is, the Word as a source of spirituality and energy in ones commitment to serve the other.

THErEsA S. KAsTnEr, MM

Adult Faith Development


In the 21st Century
DIArMUID OMUrcHU

This book is an effort to share the fruit of the authors twenty years of conducting Enneagram workshops in Taiwan. Her practical experience teaching Enneagram in an Asian context shaped the content. The book can prove a useful guide to those encountering the Enneagram for the first time. It may also serve readers who have met the Enneagram before and simply wish to refresh their understanding of this precious source of ancient yet ever new wisdom. Exploring the Enneagram path is a wonderful, life-long journey. Enjoy the discoveries that await you!

This relatively new culture of the adult faith-seeker originated in the closing decades of the twentieth century as developmental psychology highlighted the changing nature of growth and maturity at different life-stages. Accompanied by the information explosion, adult people particularly began to ask questions for which they sought adult answers. The co-dependency of earlier times, expecting adults to believe what religious authorities taught, is alien to contemporary adult religious maturity. Adult faith has arrived at a new threshold, requiring novel approaches and strategies in the religious development of adult people. A wonderful synthesis on contemporary faith development, a resource that will prove valuable and affirming for those seeking more authentic belief in rapidly changing times!

Surprising Daughters of Hope


BArBArA PALEcZnY

Hope stirs our hearts. Hope brings us together. Hope inspires. Hope heals. This book is about hope, making room for it, finding it, being strengthened in it and sharing it. Barbara Paleczny leads readers on an inner journey through down-to-Earth personal awareness and renewed appreciation for the power of images of symbols to heal and to release creative energy. Within the ever-expanding cosmos, we realize that all creation is profoundly one, with its life flowing in and through you and me. Consciousness leads to conscience as we remember that all good Earth energy strengthens us while destruction and suffering for one harms all.

Tasting the Word of God (vol.1)


Commentaries on the Sunday Lectionary
146 pp.

Tasting the Word of God (vol.2)


Commentaries on the Daily Lectionary
439 pp.

In the sacred books the Father who is in heaven meets his children with great love and speaks with them; and the force in the Word of God is so great that it remains the support and energy of the Church, the strength of faith for her children, the food of the soul, the pure and perennial source of spiritual life. These words from Vatican IIs Divine Revelation can serve as a vital foundation for these volumes of commentaries on the Lectionary readings for the cycle of the Churchs liturgy, worship, prayer and preaching. The readings serve to help us realize our connection to the universal Church praying as the Body of Christ together with one heart, mind, soul and body. The liturgy of Word and Eucharist is like a huge web strung across the world, holding it together and gathering all peoples into one before God. These commentaries are offered as jumping off places, and there cannot be enough of them for no matter how many years we listen and celebrate the liturgies of the Churchs year and participate in the great mysteries of our God, there is always so much more to say, more food for thought, more hope and courage distilled, more essence of the scent of God among us; more to hear of wonder, delight and the love that God bears for us in Jesus and the Spirit.

To Live in Prayer

An Essay of Theory and Practice of Christian Prayer


Fr. FErnAnDO GUILLEn PrEckLEr, ScH.P .

The Christian, grafted by the baptism in Christ, through prayer makes conscious and carries out the personal mystery of the adopted son when he listens to understand, loves to unite his heart, and decides to agree his will with the Spirit that leads to the Father, and teaches him from within to become an authentic son. Prayer is therefore the unfolding of the mystery of the Christian personality through ones whole life.

A Christian Theology of the Last Things


Fr. COLM McKEATIng, MSSC

Stirrings of a Heart in Prayer


Fr. SALVADOr G. AgUALADA Jr., CMF

This book is a pleasantly readable and inspiring presentation of the Last Things, a subject which does not lend itself easily to interesting reading. The authors treatment of the Last Things, seeing it all as a theology of hope from the perspective of Gods love is refreshing. And he makes his subject very relevant when he states correctly, Every revelation of the past or of the future is intended for the present life and is meant to instruct and challenge us.

Fr. Salvador Buddy G. Agualada, Jr., a priest-poet, is now sharing his ideas, convictions, thoughts and reflections in his first book Stirrings of a Heart in Prayer. His poems bare to us the heart within the man; his homilies and addresses, the mind and hand within him. Through his poetry, it is hoped we also see ourselves as beings bowing to a mighty Creator; through his homilies and addresses, it is hoped we realize ourselves as being empowered by the same Creator who has called us from the very beginning to a life of communion and love.

And Other Essays on Biblical Themes


There are four essential themes that are used by the author to group the articles War and Peace, Social Justice, Biblical Women, Church and Mission which are her personal concerns and interests. The articles present the many social issues we encounter today in a way that it will be comprehensible to readers even if they do not have enough theological background. Indeed, the book offers deep scriptural and theological insights and will benefit anyone concerned with what the Scripture has to say.
Category: Theology 293 pp., PhP265

The book contains inspiring stories of a woman who not only managed to perform her role as a wife to her husband and a mother to her two kids but is also an active worker in the Church, promoting the value and importance of stewardship in our Christian life. The author narrates how simple conversations with her kids, Adi and Ali, have become opportunities to instill and teach her kids about Stewardship. In this book one cannot help but be amazed that the little acts of sharing, giving, concern and love that we do for our family, parish, friends and people we meet everyday are acts that promote and help in building the Church.

BrEnDAn LOVETT

Our healing is coincident with the discovery of how much we have falsified God. But how could we, trapped into our self-hatred, ever discover how wrong we were in projecting a remote and angry God? Only by experiencing the true face of the love that is there for us. It is to such an experience that the liturgy invites us.

The Way of the Heart

Gregory Palamas and the Great Spiritual Traditions of Asia: The Encounters Relevance to Asian Religious Life
Fr. Canilangs well-researched study is a groundbreaking work which investigates in depth the spiritual teaching of Gregory Palamasas found specially in the 18th century ascetico-mystical Philokalia anthropologyand brings it into exploratory dialogue with the rich and varied spiritual heritage of Asian cultures and religions. This is done, as a sustained effort to more fully understand the significance and relevance of the Eastern/hesychast way (and its experience) for contemporary religious asceticomystical life and practice in Asia. Thus also men and women living the Religious Life in Asia will be helped to rediscover, from a fresh perspective and at a new depth, the Christian tradition of the spiritual asceticomystical life. Fr. Canilangs reflection is remarkably comprehensive in its striving to touch all the bases relevant to Christian life, mission and ministry in the Asia of our time. It also meets the imperative to enter into inter-religious dialogue even in the area of spirituality. C.G. Arevalo, SJ

Freeing Celibacy

A Study of Newly Ordained Catholic Priests


This book reports what was learned from interviews with five hundred priests who were within five years of ordination and seventy-two recently ordained priests who had resigned. The research indicated that 10 to 15 percent of priests resigned within the first five years of their ministry due to loneliness, feelings of being unappreciated, problems of celibacy, and disillusionment. The priests who remained active reported that satisfaction with their ministry came particularly from presiding at the Eucharist, preaching, and teaching.

Sex, Priestly Ministry, and the Church


LEn SpErrY

Mandatory celibacy for Latin rite Catholic priests has been the norm for almost 900 years. Now the clergy sexual abuse scandal and the rapidly declining number of priests have pushed many of the faithful to the point of questioning this tradition of the church. Cozzens explores priestly celibacy as source of power and burden of obligation, as spiritual calling and gift of the Spirit. Putting mandatory celibacy in historic perspective, he examines the ancient and contemporary experience of married clergy in the Eastern churches of the Roman rite church. It is time, he concludes, to set celibacy free from canonical mandate to become what it is meant to be a graced way of life for some but not all of the churchs ordained ministers.

Journey Into the Heart of Christ


Fr. FErDInAnD SAnTOs

Letters to Seminary Students on Life, Faith and Formation


As a seminary student progresses in his journey into the heart of Christ, he discovers more and more the foundational reality of the priesthood, namely, that a priest is a spiritual leader, nothing more, and nothing less. He must be a spiritual man. This perhaps is the simplest, but also the most profound realization one makes; or should make. It almost sounds too simple. And yet it is precisely because of its simplicity that many forget it. It is because it seems too simple that in the history of the church, many have lost sight of it and have sought to complicate it with every sort of externality: power, ambition, title, honor, popularity, and wealth; all with disastrous results.

103 pp., PhP145

During the past decades Parish Pastoral Councils and Diocesan Councils have presented proposals for overcoming the shortage of priests. Councils of Priests and Diocesan Synods have also passed resolutions about it. These suggestions were often unrealistic and lacked a consideration of the many implications of such ideas.

This book is about the proposed ordination of proven leaders of Catholic communities. Our priests of today are human beings like all of us, but they are dissimilar.

Could we introduce a second kind of priest who is living in a way similar to the rest of community? Questions such as these are at the heart of this study.

This book proposes parish clusters as the easiest and safest starting point when examining the idea of ordaining groups of local parish leaders. In many parts of the Church, the shortage of priests has resulted in one priest having to serve a group of parishes within a diocese. This development of parish clusters is not welcomed by many Catholics who were accustomed to having their own parish priest. However, this arrangement offers the bestin some cases the onlyanswer to the insufficient number of priests. The rationale for suggesting parish clusters as the appropriate starting point for the ordination of teams of lay leaders is explained at length.

Through them, he addresses issues specific to the church itself and its relationships with secularism, science and technology, other religious traditions, the struggles particular to Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the West, and the churchs role in the pressing ecological, political and spiritual crises of our world.

The Theology of Struggle in the Philippines


AnnE HArrIs

Dare to Struggle, Be not Afraid

An American Emmaus
Faith and Sacrament in the American Culture
REgIs DUffY

This book delves into this very topicthe theology of struggle. It plunges far deeper than theological reflections and oral representations available. It goes to the source of what became known as the theology of struggleit goes to the very people themselves. It journeys with these progressive Christians as they discover a new way of life, a new way of being church. It travels with them from early days of transformation, watches as some lose their all-important Christian identity, reports the moment when they claim their place in Philippine history, and remains with those who continue to struggle to this day. It reports crucial incidents, reveals the dangers and frustrations faced, but never loses hope. Indeed, this is not a theological text, despite its name. It is a book about a courageous group of men and women church people from diverse backgroundswho joined the revolutionary struggle in the Philippines.
154 pp., PhP299

Regis Duffy focuses on the connections between being Catholic and American at this point in history, challenges the Church to give witness to the gospel message, and shows how it is through liturgy that the church once again takes the walk to Emmaus.

Voice from the Desert


BIsHOp JAcQUEs GAILLOT

A Bishops Cry for a New Church


When the Vatican relocated Gaillot from his thriving diocese in Evreux, France, to Partenia, a defunct diocese in the Sahara desert, the bishop responded with this letter to his new flock of Muslim North Africans and to the wider audience of those willing to hear his challenge. He calls on all Catholics to persist in dialogue without condemnation so that the church can, as Jesus did, embrace the dispossessed: those marginalized by poverty; those living with AIDS; those in prison; those ostracized for homosexuality; and, ultimately, those struggling on the borderlines of their own Christian faith. In vibrant, clear, and poetic prose, Bishop Gaillot expresses his dreams for a Catholic Church that exists to serve the people of God.
120 pp., Hard Cover, PhP35

A recommended tool to be used in the weekly meetings of the Basic Ecclesial Communities (BECs). It invites its members to reflect on the Good News brought by Jesus, to share their own insights in His words and actions and from there, to come to action to improve the life of their community on all levels. Its goal is that the members live more and more as brothers and sisters, and become more willing to help each other. This can be used also in Bible Study Groups, with the hope that one-day they too will grow to a living, helping and loving community. (In Tagalog)

Why Go to Church?
TIMOTHY RADcLIffE

The Drama of the Eucharist


The Eucharist writes Timothy Radcliffe is a three part drama, forming us in faith, hope and love. In this book he examines what it means to celebrate the Eucharist. Whilst other people experience it as boring and pointless, listening to the readings, the homily and the creed all take us through the crises and challenges of faith. From the offertory through to the end of the Eucharist prayer we are caught up in the hope that was Christs, faced with Good Friday. From the Our Father until we are sent on our way, especially in receiving communion, we are formed as people who are capable of love.

The result is both a convincing scholarly picture of Jesus in relation to his Jewish historical context and to the beginnings of the Christian community and a coherent message of Jesus as Gods word of salvation to humankind.

Jesus

An Unconventional Biography
JAcQUEs DUQUEsnE

Jesus, the international bestseller, answers these questions. In examining the gospel accounts, the author synthesizes modern archaeological and textual discoveries and studies, setting forth what we know today to be true about the life of Jesus. In clear and respectful language, he highlights the events of Jesus life, distinguishing within the gospels what is certain, what is probable, what is improbable, and what is symbolic. The result is a fresh and honest portrait of Jesus that shows why he has captivated the world for two millennia.

People of God
JOs COMBLIn

A New Church for a New Age

In this book Jose Comblin issues a powerful call for the retrieval of Vatican IIs central teaching that the Church is the whole people of God a teaching that has gradually been displaced over the past 25 years by an official ecclesiology stressing the churchs clerical and hierarchical character, with an authority-structure centralized in Rome.

Catholicism in the Third Millennium


THOMAs P . RAUscH; FOcUs QUEsTIOns AnD GLOssArY BY CATHErInE E. CLIffOrD

An excellent analysis of the New Age Movement, Wostyn offers an orthodox, fair, critical and appreciative appraisal of these various new religious clusters. Contrary to the conventional viewpoint of indifference toward these so-called new religions, browsing through these wellresearched pages can even allow us to further deepen our Christian faith.

Pentecost in Asia
THOMAs C. FOx

This book combines a faithful presentation of the tradition with a critical theological reflection and interpretation of where the Church is today and where it might be moving. Catholicism in the Third Millennium offers an appreciation of the forces and movements that have shaped, and continue to influence, the ongoing change and development of Roman Catholicism. Chief among these is the influence of the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965) in reshaping Catholicism.
304 pp., Paperback, PhP299

A New Way of Being Church


This book seeks to answer, among others, the following questions: What would the Catholic Church look like if an unyielding search for justice and harmony characterized its mission in the world? How would Catholicism appear to the world and to other religions if simply living out the gospels became its primary mode of evangelization? What if Catholic bishops looked to their theologians as venerable masters, incorporating them into deliberations on theology and pastoral care? The above paint a picture of a new kind of Catholicism. And, as journalist Thomas C. Fox shows us, this Catholicism has already been born and has been coming to life in Asia over the past thirty years. It is a Catholicism that offers a fresh, new vision of church, a global vision for the 21st century.

Transforming Christianity
STEpHEn GLAUZ-TODrAnk

Ten Pathways to a New Reformation


Christianity, writes the author, is beginning to undergo a metamorphosis from traditional Roman Catholic and Protestant worldviews into something altogether new. Transforming Christianity sheds light on the reformation that is happening now.
132 pp., PhP35

In Ten Thousand Places is a profound reinterpretation of the role of dogma that respects the pluralism of the contemporary church. The book develops an understanding of dogma that not only provides for its essential function for unification but also acknowledges and affirms a church that is a communion of local churches.

A Return to Spirit

DEsMOnD MUrpHY

Did Jesus Want a Two-Class Church?


HErBErT HAAg & ROBErT NOWELL

A Return to Spirit breaks new ground. It has no interest in attacking either the institution or those disenchanted by it. By looking at the evolution of the Catholic Church in the light of Transpersonal Psychology, it offers fundamental reasons why efforts at renewal have led to polarization, and offers a vision of the future that focuses on transformation through spiritual values. And while futuristic, it is applicable now. It gives fresh insights into religion and faith by giving us a clearer understanding of our deepest and best selves.
271 pp., PhP50

The last thing Jesus wanted, says the author, was a church divided into clergy (leaders) and laity (followers). He argues that the hour has struck for the church to consider its way back to its real nature.

Jesus and the Reign of God


William Dych offers a new look at the theology of grace and church, ministry and priesthood, through the prism of the reign of God proclaimed by Jesus. Building upon the new understanding suggested by the most recent biblical and theological research, Thy Kingdom Come explores the priority of the practical imperative contained in the churchs remembering and proclaiming over any kind of selfcentered theoretical claims about the church itself. This shift in perspective does not diminish the role of the church, but emphasizes the responsibility of the entire People of God in their mission of service to the whole human family.
173 pp., PhP75

Drawing upon both scientific and religious sources, this book contributes to contemporary works on evolution, enabling the reader to not only listen to stories of the unfolding universe, but also to enjoy them. Highly recommended to those interested in understanding the currently changing worldview and those who long to encounter God in the ever new moments of revelation.

Virtues for Ordinary Christians


Fr. JAMEs F. KEEnAn, SJ

How to Read the World: Creation in Evolution


CHrIsTIAn MOnTEnAT, LUc PLATEAUx & PAscAL ROUx

Here a group of scientists who are also Christians presents the result of several years reflection on the origins of life, the increasing autonomy of living beings, the emergence of humanity and human freedom, our relationship with the Creator, and the drama of evil and death. To shed some light on these mysteries, they show how evolution can be read as a demonstration of the creative activity of God.
126 pp., PhP75

At a time when principles animate so much moral talk in professional life, Virtues for Ordinary Christians offers virtue as the starting point for doing moral reflections and for giving more advice. When most ethicists are suggesting that the primary ethical question today is What should I do?, Keenan asks, What should I be? Taking familiar patterns from ordinary lifefamily, schools, parishes, businessKeenan weaves one virtue after another through the fabric of human existence. Along the way he offers not only the traditional virtues charity, justice, temperance, courage, fortitudebut also some new ones: fidelity, self-esteem, hospitality, gratitude and truthfulness.

Moral Wisdom

Lessons and Texts from the Catholic Tradition


Fr. JAMEs F. KEEnAn, SJ

Violence, Society, and the Church


A Cultural Approach
GErALD A. ArBUckLE

Imagine a book that is at once a source of profound wisdom, a systematic presentation of a moral and ethical tradition, and a page turner! This is what Keenans Moral Wisdom turns out to be. There is nothing facile about this volume. Nothing superficial, nothing manipulative. It weaves together autobiography, the stories of others, interpretation of biblical and theological texts, and a deep understanding of what morality is and what the Roman Catholic tradition of moral theology has been and can be when it is at its best.
190 pp., PhP155

The reality of violence and the fear it generates is constantly in the news. Terrorist attacks across the world and other abuses of power, such as the sexual abuses in the Catholic Church, the continuance of patriarchalism, racism, and the negative effects of globalization highlight the relevance of Violence, Society, and the Church. Here the author uniquely explains these forms of violence in the wider context of their cultural roots.

During the last twenty years, our knowledge of Asian Christian theologies and of their extensive written sources has greatly increased, as has the number of those studying and teaching such theologies. There has been, however, no attempt as yet to provide an Asia-wide and comprehensive guide to study or research in these theologies. These volumes provide the first ecumenical and fully representative guide to research in the authors, movements and sources for contextual Asian Christian theologies. The central focus is therefore upon theological reflection which has arisen from the faith experience of Christians within the particular histories and cultures of the regions peoples and which has been shaped and resourced by such contexts.

Workbooks for College Theology Students 2


Theology from the Heart of Asia (Volume I)
FABC Doctoral Dissertations I (1985-1998)

This two-volume work, Theology from the Heart of Asia, seeks to promote this self-discovery process within Asias Christian communities; it highlights Asian perspectives in theological reflection and pastoral life. In the many tasks integral to the effective inculturation of the Gospel and the ecclesiogenesis of the Church in Asia, theology necessarily plays a significant role. This book gathers together all the completed doctoral dissertations focused on the Federation of Asian Bishops Conferences (FABC), that continental community of Asian Churches which emerged from the November 1970 pastoral visit of Pope Paul VI to Asia. In Manila, the pope met with 180 Asian bishops and they discerned how best to enhance the reception of the Second Vatican Council in Asia. In subsequent years, the FABC vision of inculturated, missionary local Churches has captured the imagination of many Catholics across the Asian continent.

One can assume that these members of the faithful have little knowledge about the Churchs teachings and that they probably have never heard of Nostra Aetate, let alone understand or subscribe to its teachings. In fact, even some of our own priests and other pastoral leaders are not familiar with documents such as Dialogue and Mission or with the FABCs Theology of Harmony. Hence, we have to admit that there is indeed a gap between what the FABC and the Church in Asia is saying about interreligious dialogue and what is actually happening at the grassroots levels. The publication of this Resource Manual, therefore, attempts to address this issue and hopefully, will play a small role in bridging the gap between the theory and the practice. Specifically, the Resource Manual contains all sorts of materials which could be used for the education and formation of persons for interreligious dialogue.

To understand the cult of the Christian religion. The Virgin Mary is a ubiquitous but enigmatic presence in Christian history and culture. The tradition about Mary forms a vast and multi-layered aspect of Western history, culture and spirituality. It is not just in the Catholic tradition that Mary has become a particular focus of study and interest. Mary has also become a crucial interest for Christians outside this tradition (Protestant, Anglican) as a path to ecumenical understanding. This book is intended as a reference book for the student or scholar seeking knowledge of the history and contemporary practice of the cult of the Virgin Mary.

A Christmas Compendium

Why do we have Christmas trees and what, if anything, do they have to do with the story of Mary and Joseph and the baby Jesus? When did the tradition of sending Christmas cards begin? What is frankincense? The twelve days of Christmas? These are just some of the questions answered in succinct, informative entries in this engaging A-Z of Christmas and the meaning behind the traditions we love or hate. Each entry includes a dictionary definition, the origin of the word or phrase including its Latin roots, and sometimes a further relevant snippet of information such as a biblical reference or a general description. Then follows the entry, sometimes just a single paragraph, giving more detailed information in concise, accessible language. Christmas is so all-encompassing that everyone is caught up in it, believers and non-believers alike: here is a book which will remind those who have forgotten, or inform those who never knew, where it all came from.

278 pp., PhP225

Fr. FErnAnDO GUILLEn PrEckLEr, ScH.P .

Every young person has to decide his future work, specific love and religious faith. In these decisions the perspective of consecrated life or priestly apostolate can appear as an actual possible call of the Lord. But it will be necessary to reflect upon the reasons that lead to this kind of choice, and to purify them, discovering the true profundity of vocation. Only this awareness can permit the constant thanksgiving for the Lords appeal, which is to follow the Canticle of Mary.

Vows for Non-Violence


A Radical Option for Life
Many people hold the view that the vows of poverty, celibacy, and obedience embody laws or regulations that govern a religious or monastic lifestyle. Diarmuid OMurchu offers a very different understanding of the vows, based on a much more ancient tradition. OMurchu claims that the vows are first and foremost about values and not about laws. And in this provocative work he suggests that the Eastern concept of non-violence is a core value of the vowed life in all the monastic traditions known to humankind.

Making Sense of a Changing World

Our World in Transition


This best-selling author presents his startling and challenging theory that we live in an age of transition, where the old ways of relating to the world and each other are now redundant; he argues that the coming together over the last thirty years of ecological concerns, scientific exploration, human seeking and spiritual consciousness is the only way forward if we are to continue to be able to live on this planet. OMurchus message that a dramatic evaluation of humankinds priorities is not necessary but also inevitable, and is aimed at everyone with an inquiring mind.

A modern prayerbook and book about prayer for people of all faiths, for those who go to church and those who dont. Favorite prayers from many traditions, more than 400 prayers of yesterday and today from more than 250 writers.

Like a body without a soul, is the way Pope John Paul II describes the Rosary without contemplation, citing Paul VI, Without it, the recitation (of the Rosary) runs the risk of becoming a mechanical repetition of formulas, in violation of the admonition of Christ: In praying do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do; for they think they will be heard for their many words (Mt 6:7). Deep reflection, then, on the mysteries of the lives of Jesus and Mary are the heart and soul of the Rosary. One moves gradually from a mediocre life of grace to a more intimate union with God.

48 pp., Hardcover, PhP150

How does anyone put on the mind of Christ, as Scripture commands? Can people really get so close to Christ that they not only know his mind but also take on his thinking? And what does this mean for Christian discipleship, the Church, the ordinary person of faith? We shall see, in the case of Jesus, that these two concepts heart and mind, become one orientation, attitude, and spring for action. They also provide one unmovable pointer for us to a destination we trust in, as we set out to know Christ, and be known by him, and so to enter into a creative relationship with the very centre of our faith.

RIcHArD GrIffITHs

The Mowbray Lent Book


Towards the end of his distinguished academic career, Richard Griffiths fulfilled a longstanding aspiration by being ordained into the Anglican Church. This Lent book was inspired by the response to a number of talks he has given to Christian audiences. He starts by examining the nature of private prayer, and the role of the arts, and poetry in particular, as an aid to it. Then he takes a number of individual poems, first showing the ways in which they achieve their effects, and the overtones of suggestion that exist within them, before using them as a basis for religious meditation and reflection.

With the Second Vatican Council came a reminder that every Christian is a minister of the Gospel, called to witness to Christs redeeming love. How do we do this? The suggestions in these meditations by Cardinal Martini offer fresh and immediate ways of striving to witness to the Word of God. By considering how Jesus educated his evangelists, Martini speaks of being rather than doingbeing open to Gods Word of saving love, and being an instrument of that love for a searching and often bewildered world.

The Transformation of Desire


How Desire Became Corrupted and How We Can Reclaim It
Fr. DIArMUID OMUrcHU, MSC

Reclaiming Spirituality
DIArMUID OMUrcHU

This book is for those who want to reclaim their intuitive wisdom and outgrow the propaganda that has controlled our lives and our hearts for far too long. It is a book that seeks to engender hope and vitality beyond the several destructive forces that engulf our world today. We need to reclaim the inner resources through which, once more, we can learn to live with integrity, meaning and joy in our daily lives.
208 pp., PhP229

Diarmuid OMurchus purpose in writing this book has been to retrieve the long-lost subverted tradition of spirituality and reestablish its primary significance in the human search for meaning and purpose. While the modern world continues to struggle with religious fanaticism on the one hand and religious indifference on the other; spirituality explores with new vision and with fresh possibilities for a more integrated world view.

What Do I Own and What Owns Me?


DAnIEL COnWAY

Seeking the Hidden God


JAnE KOpAs

A Spirituality of Stewardship
The question this book poses is key to understanding and practicing stewardship as a way of life. The author believes that when all is said and done we own nothing because we are possessed wholly and completely by a good and gracious God. Stewardship is one of the chief characteristics of what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. This basic insight, among others, was essential to the stewardship message of Archbishop Thomas Murphy, to whom this book is dedicated. To clarify and exemplify his message, Conway offers insightful reflections, moving stories, and practical reflection questions for individual and group use. What Do I Own and What Owns Me? is invaluable for parish stewardship committees, parish counselors, pastoral ministers, and all who have a profound desire to live as disciples of Christ.
84 pp., PhP130

Finding God elusive or questioning Gods presence in the world doesnt have to undermine faith. Questioning Gods very existence, as Jane Kopas shows us, goes as far back as Moses, Job and Jonah, and including some of the early church fathers and mystics. Today, in our continuing struggle to know God, we must be willing to move beyond a desire for a God who is easily grasped and understood. Then we may find a hidden God who can strengthen us and better help us cope with the uncertainty of our world.

Traditions of Christian Spirituality Series 2


Contemplation and Compassion
The Victorine Tradition
Victorine spirituality, which emerged from the Abbey of St. Victor in Paris, was one of the most creative, exciting, and productive traditions of the Middle Ages. With emphasis on contemplative prayer, the presence of God in all things, and loving compassion toward ones neighbors, the Victorine tradition has many parallels with presentday spirituality and holds promise for enriching and energizing contemporary spiritual formation.

Following in the Footsteps of Christ


The Anabaptist Tradition
C. ArnOLD SnYDEr

The Anabaptists were the largest, most significant of the radical movements that paralleled the Protestant reforms of the 16th century. Their program was distinctive in its insistence upon baptism of adult believers, a visible life of discipleship, an ascetic way of life, and a commitment to nonviolence. This vision clashed with the ruling civil and church authorities, whether Catholic or Protestant, who persecuted them violently. Despite persecution and ostracism the Anabaptist tradition lives on in diverse forms whether among the Amish, the Hutterites, the Bruderhof, or the Mennonites.

Grace That Frees


BrADLEY HAnsOn

The Lutheran Tradition


Some consider the idea of Lutheran spirituality an oxymorona species of works righteousness. It is not so much based on techniques or specific practices, but on an attitude of trust and faith in Gods grace. In relationship with Christ the believer is free from the never-ending quest to earn good standing with God, and at the same time free for service to God and others.

The Evangelical Tradition


What a Friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear: What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer. Evangelical spirituality, with roots in the revivals of the eighteenth century, is not confined to a church or denomination. Its overriding theme, as reflected in the hymn cited above, is the importance of a personal relationship with Jesus. Yet this personal experience has had broad implications for service and action in the world.

Spiritual Pilgrimage
Texts on Jews and Judaism 1979-1995
POpE JOHn PAUL II, EUgEnE J. FIsHEr AnD LEOn KLEnIckI, EDs.

The Spiritual pilgrimage undertaken by the Pope on his way to the Synagogue of Rome, the first visit ever since the time of Peter, spanned centuries of mistrust. For almost two millennia Christians and Jews have lived in the same universe, under the same sky. They are both in history, experiencing history. But they have seldom been together. Dialogue necessitates a reckoning with centuries of one-sided teaching, and centuries of memory.

A different figure is introduced for each day of the year to coincide with feasts days or birth/death dates, and helpful biographical sources are provided.

Downward Mobility and the Spiritual Life


In this short work Henri Nouwen offers a penetrating reflection on the challenge of the spiritual life, especially the call to imitate Christs example of downward mobility.

How to Befriend Your Shadow


JOHn MOnBOUrQUETTE

Welcoming Your Unloved Side


Each of us has a shadow, composed of everything we have driven back into our unconscious for fear of being rejected by the people we loved when we were young. Over the years, we created a whole underground world filled with things that were shameful, displeasing or upsetting to those around us. Our task as adults is to rediscover what makes up our shadow, to bring it into the light, and to use it for our own spiritual growth. If we refuse to do this work, we risk being out of balance psychologically, and our lives and relationships will not reach their fullest potential. Is your shadow your friend or your enemy? That will depend on how you see it and how you relate to it. This book offers you the tools you need to welcome your shadow side. Befriend your shadow, and watch your relationship with yourself and with others grow and deepen!
159 pp., PhP185

The pages of this book invite us to embark on a journey of silence within our inner selves in order to discover the very roots of suffering and then to surrender ourselves to the happiness of daily life. Acceptance, trust, attention and love will be our companions for the journey. To surrender ourselves to Silence is to surrender ourselves to life itself. It is to let go and to be ready to sail wherever the wind will take us. Our only steersman throughout the journey will be the wind.

120 pp., PhP195

What is your personal mission in life? Many of us find it hard to answer this question. It is so easy to get caught up in the day-to-day concerns of paying the bills and putting food on the table that we lose sight of the bigger picture. Whether we are young or not so young, we may feel that we haven't quite found our mission, that we're not doing what we feel we should be doing. How to Discover Your Personal Mission invites you on an adventure to discover your personal mission. In this user-friendly book, best-selling author John Monbourquette will lead you through a three-stage process: learning to let go of the past; deepening your sense of identity and mission; and risking a new beginning in life. Through exercises and reflection, you will find the path that leads you in the direction that your soul is calling you.

Seeking God in All Things


Theology and Spiritual Direction
Fr. WILLIAM REIsEr, SJ

The practice of spiritual direction assumes a theology of the Holy Spirit, a theology of revelation and the Church, and a theology of prayer. Seeking God in All Things explores each of these themes as the underpinnings of spiritual direction and examines what makes the Christian religious experience distinctive. Since not every experience of God bears a Christian imprint, Reiser, asks whether and in what way a Christian might be able to assist someone who is not Christian develop his or her interior life. This question looks beyond suggesting the concrete steps a person might take in initiating, nurturing, and solidifying a way of praying. It looks, rather, toward the fundamental issue of helping others as they discover and deepen their relationship to the mystery of God.

Lazarus! Come Out!


RIcHArD COTE

Why Faith Needs Imagination


Long ignored, imagination plays a central role in how we relate to God. Here Richard Cote explores the role of the imagination in the development of our spirituality and deepest sense of faith. Using the analogy of Lazarus, Cote explores how our imagination is waiting to be called out from its tomb. This book is a loud and clear clarion call to celebrate the place of imagination and creativity at the heart of our experience of God. Like the biblical figure of Lazarus, whom Jesus called forth from the tomb, our imaginations wait to be summoned forth into the light. Religious imagination is a key dimension of faith, the vital point of contact between divine revelation and human experience. Without religious imagination, how can we see the hand of God in our lives, the face of Christ in the poor, or the signs of Gods reign in our broken world? The faithful imagination of Christians opens up unprecedented possibilities for the believer and the Church today.

The Creation Mandala


Fr. VIncEnT BUscH, MSSC

Touching Thoughts
Mr. ROMAnO BULATAO

Touching Thoughts A-Z, as the author reveals it himself, is a collection of some of the inspiring passages he has learned from his students in his long years of teaching experience at Saint Louis University. Moreover, Touching Thoughts A-Z affirms that the basics of teaching and learning in the classroom bear a far-reaching range of influence that includes life outside the classroom setting itself. For Mr. Bulatao, recognizing the significance of students in the entire teaching experience shows that teaching is profoundly about learning from our students. Students can teach us, if only we, teachers, are open to admit that. This selfless and admirable account of Mr. Bulatao exemplifies the truth that there clearly exist a reflexive relation between teaching and learning. Personally, I see here a teacher who is an educator in the real sense of the word a leader and a servant at the same time who is committed to the well-being of students. (An excerpt from the Foreword of this book, by Rev. Fr. Jessie M. Hechanova, CICM - President, Saint Louis University)

During the difficult years of Martial Law (1972-86) the author collaborated with community-based artists whose souls-slide productions, radio dramas, video documentaries, and alternate media provided ways for poor people to voice their concerns and fears. Among the concerns of the poor wasand continues to bethe reckless and relentless exploitation of the natural resources of Mindanao for the profit of a few. This incessant plunder and pollution of Mindanaos resources is bringing about an ecological tragedy. At present, the forests, rivers, seas, mangroves, and farmlands of the island are seriously degraded, and many poor communities are concerned about how to restore their dying habitat. Buschs art, which now includes plays, poems, paintings, illustrated books, and handicrafts, echoes the concern of the poor for their wounded land, and celebrates the Earth as a gift to be cherished and nurtured.

According to the author, she is presenting us with an ancient manuscript that was written long ago by one of the many wives of Solomon.

She wrote these Chronicles to offer another side to the story of our shared myths and memories. The Chronicles of Noah and Her Sisters is wonderful spiritual reading, and a must for all womenand men concerned about handing on the essentials of faith to their daughters and granddaughters.

The Third Gospel for the Third World


HErMAn HEnDrIckx, CICM

The Gospel of Luke was most probably written for a Christian community or a cluster of house churches in a city of Eastern Mediterranean. Thus when Luke speaks of the poor, he has first of all in mind the urban poor in his time. Thereby his Gospel has a special relevance for the Third World and its millions of urban poor in the mega cities for the twentieth century. The Third Gospel for the Third World is a commentary on the Gospel of Luke that intends to pay special though not exclusive attention to whatever may be of particular interest to Third World readers, as it tries to make available to a wider reading public what the author considers to have pastoral implications first and foremost in a third world setting.

The Concise Bible

Christian Community Bible


Reading the Bible in its entirety is quite a task, especially for young people and not habitual readers. As it happens with great literary works, the initial drive and interest soon fades away and after a few pages or halfway through, the book is put aside. That is why, this Concise Bible is a selection of texts from the books of books maintaining in its selected fragments the original text without alterations. In this way the reader becomes aware of particular styles and genres in the different passages of the Bible. This anthology gets its inspiration in the texts that are more often used in the liturgy and does not in any way hinder the complete reading of the Bible. It is an intermediary stage to discover the richness and beauty of the Word of God as it appears in Scripture, hopefully encouraging the reader to know it more deeply and in its totality.

The Bible

The author provides the readers profound and helpful interpretations of important scripture passages. These interpretations are grounded in the Churchs teaching from the Vatican Council II. He also tackles contemporary issues we experience today like issues on gender, domestic violence, and the value of living a moral life. A number of the core chapters directly engage the paradox of salvation and eternal life. The last two chapters of the work argue eloquently that the innocence, humility and openness of children serve as the role model for adults who seek the spiritual path, salvation, and a religious meaning for human life.

Represents a lifetime of thought, bible study, missionary experience, and missiological teaching by one of the premier missiologists of the last half of the century. During the past fifty years, there have been few works that have dealt in-depth with a missional reading of the Bible. Yet of those that do exist, in many cases the biblical analysis has been done by Bible scholars with little background in missiological thought or praxis. In other cases missiologists with little background in biblical studies have tried to derive biblical foundations for their missionary perspective. In this volume Glasser uniquely couples a careful and in-depth approach to the Bible with a broad understanding of missiological reflection and missionary action.
