Excellent Expostion of Connecting Faith and Daily Life
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This book is a gem. It should find its way into the hands of every person doing ministry in the Church. Michael and Kenneth Himes have written a book that needed to written some time ago. They have helped Catholics to see that Theology is a not a remote and abstract human science confined to the academy. It is rather and exposition and a praxis of the Gospel addressing the "signs of the times." But they go beyond this too! They demonstrate how the foundational dogmas and doctines of the Catholic faith connect with the realities of public life. That is faith cannot be neutral and disconnected from public life but is called to bring the vision of the Catholic way of life into the discussion of the polis as to how policies are to be shaped and effectuated in the light of the dignity of every human person. This book deserves wide readership among clergy and laity alike. I would especially recommend it for all deacon candidates.
