What They Don't Teach You in Catholic College

Skickas inom 11-20 vardagar
A 216-page hardcover book that makes the case for women in the Catholic priesthood - even though the hierarchy of the Church has traditionally opposed the idea, based largely on their belief that Christ wanted a male-only priesthood for all time. The author, a renowned theologian, disputes that ultra-conservative viewpoint and explains why it is in the Church's best interest to ordain women.

The Catholic Church--like other churches--has created institutions to support its spiritual mission. The exercise of authority plays a central role in how they function. The truth is that ugly accretions have attached themselves to that "authority" in the course of the centuries. Like weeds, scallops, and rubbish clinging to the bottom of a ship. Think of unchristian cultural views, customs, and practices from the Roman Empire, the barbarian tribes in Europe and the feudalistic Middle Ages that nailed themselves to the ministries. These cancerous growths have even been enshrined in church laws. . . . This booklet identifies what is wrong by going back to Jesus'' original intentions. Find out how Jesus wanted the spiritual authority he gives to be exercised in practice.

The 264-page memoir of a Catholic priest and theologian who has spent a lifetime advocating for the reform of outdated policies and practices of the Church. A prolific writer of Christian literature and film scripts, he was the founder and director of a center for faith formation in London, which continues today as the Wijngaards Institute for Catholic Research. This book reveals his "Ten Commandments" for Church reform - ranging from the inclusion of women in the priesthood to the appointment of open-minded, pastoral bishops rather than hard-line traditionalists.
Ordained Women Deacons

A recent theological statement from the Roman Catholic Church has increased hopes that while women may not be ordained as priests, their ordination as deacons may soon become reality. This is a new, enlarged edition of a groundbreaking book that gathered historical evidence from ancient liturgies, literature, art and inscriptions on graves to show that the practice of ordaining women as deacons in the first ten centuries of the Church was normative. Women carried out sacramental rites alongside priests and had responsibilities for the care of the Christian community. Recent research has identified over 120 known female deacons – a figure that has tripled since this book’s first appearance, under the title No Women in Holy Orders? in 2002. This offers a positive, theological and historical contribution to a debate that is fast gaining momentum in the Catholic Church worldwide.

Why Christ Rejects All Church Prejudice Against Women

Skickas
A classic in Christian literature, this book identifies numerous ancient and contemporary prejudices and stereotypes that work against women and reduce them to secondary roles in society in general and church communities in particular. The author, a world-renowned theologian, reveals the deep-rooted sources of these prejudices and brings them into the light for close examination. He presents the material in 28 chapters that take the form of short, thought-provoking meditations. He cites evidence from both the Old and New Testaments to make it clear why such prejudices are not in line with God's will. At the end of each chapter, he suggests ways in which both women and men can deal constructively with the problems associated with this culturally ingrained discrimination.The book also contains essays by top female scholars from five continents – Europe, Asia, Africa, North America and South America. They report on long-practiced church suppression of women in their respective countries – problems that exist today and have persisted since the Middle Ages and earlier.
