Book Description
The clergy abuse scandal has posed the greatest threat to the traditional understanding of the Catholic priesthood since the Protestant Reformation. Now, as then, the deadliest attacks are coming from within the Church. In an attempt to improve a system that allowed a small minority of the clergy to violate children and ameliorate the gross negligence of some bishops who recycled these predators, the American bishops instituted the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People in 2002. It is, unfortunately, doing the Church more harm than good. In Hope Springs Eternal in the Priestly Breast, Fr. James Valladares shows how justice and charity have been violated by some bishops in dealing with accused priests. He examines the pertinent canons that guide the Churchs judicial system and finds that these are often ignored or wrongly applied. He provides true cases that highlight the injustice of the process and the agony of priests who have been subjected to the charters draconian mandates. The Church has incurred tremendous financial losses because of settlements rising from both legitimate and false claims. Her image has been marred by the secular media, which has taken advantage of the crisis. Even so, we often fail to understand how trivial these are in comparison to the damage done to the priesthood by the enactment of the charters policies. This is the most pressing issue that the bishops need to address.
Author: Lowell G. Almen Publisher: Lutheran/Roman Catholic Dialog ISBN: 9781932688634 Category : Religion Languages : en Pages : 0
Book Description
Our churches affirm that death cannot destroy the communion with God of those redeemed and justified. The nature of the life that the justified departed share with God cannot be described in great detail and, in this life, it remains a great mystery. Nevertheless, Catholics and Lutherans share the sure and certain hope that the justified departed are in Christ and enjoy the rest that belongs to those who have run the race. This common statement of Round XI offers fresh insights into some issues that proved contentious in the debates of the sixteenth century. Among the issues explored in this dialogue were continuity in the communion of saints, prayers for or about the dead, the meaning of death, purgation, an interim state between death and the final general judgment, and the promise of resurrection. Agreements are affirmed on the basis of new insights, as readers will discover in this statement of Round XI.

Book Description
"The Reverend Timothy Alden, Jr. contributed significantly and early to higher education and the Presbyterian cause in Western Pennsylvania, as well as to antiquarian studies and the Sunday school movement. Based on Alden's unpublished letters, this biography examines the patriotism, religion, and bipolar moods that motivated Alden in the intellectual climes of New England and the rough western frontier at the beginning of the nineteenth century."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Description
It's obvious from the bookshelves and the big screen that heaven is on everyone's mind. All of us long to know what life after death will be like. Bestselling author John Burke is no exception. For decades, he has been studying accounts of people who have had near-death experiences (NDEs). While not every detail of individual NDEs correlate with Scripture, Burke shows how the common experiences shared by thousands of survivors clearly point to the God of the Bible and the exhilarating picture of heaven he promises. Imagine Heaven is an inspirational journey through the Bible's picture of heaven, colored in with the real-life stories of heaven's wonders. Burke compares gripping stories of NDEs to what Scripture says about our biggest questions of heaven: Will I be myself? Will I see friends and loved ones? What will it look like? What is God like? What will we do forever? What about children and pets? This book will propel readers into an experience that will forever change their view of the life to come and the way they live life today. It also tackles the tough questions of heavenly reward and hellish NDEs. Anyone interested in NDEs or longing to imagine heaven more clearly will enjoy this fascinating and hope-filled book.

Book Description
Tim Mathis had been a minister for a decade when he abruptly left the church. This book is the raw, honest, and unexpectedly hilarious announcement of his deconversion. Raised in the strange spiritual churn of the small town Midwest in the 1990s, Tim was called as a teenager to convert the world to an evangelical faith of abstinence pledges, evolution denial, mission trips, and Christian rock. As an adult he tried to develop a spiritual life that was connected with reality through international pilgrimage, over-education, and immersion in liberal urban ministry alongside queer Christians and progressive priests. In the end, he was left questioning whether it's possible to maintain an ancient religion in the modern world. Originally published as a minister's apology for quitting church, I Hope I Was Wrong About Eternal Damnation is a cathartic and ultimately hopeful story for anyone who's struggled with faith. Tim Mathis is the author of the independent hit The Dirtbag's Guide to Life: Eternal Truth for Hiker Trash, Ski Bums and Vagabonds. He has written for Trailrunner Magazine, Grit City Magazine, and The Anglican Taonga, and has been featured on The Art of Manliness Podcast.
Author: Jürgen Moltmann Publisher: Fortress Press ISBN: 1506469396 Category : Religion Languages : en Pages : 97
Book Description
In this deeply personal and daring meditation, eminent theologian Jürgen Moltmann challenges many closely held beliefs about the experience of dying, the nature of death, and the hope of eternal life. Moving deftly between biblical, theological, and existential domains, Moltmann argues that while we know intimately the experience of dying--both our loved ones' dying and, ultimately, our own--death itself is a mystery. Are those who have died in fact dead? If the dead are alive, how or in what respect? When the dead awaken to eternal life, who wakes? Moltmann's interrogations yield surprising and beautiful fruits. The living soul that awakens to eternal life is not a ghost in a machine, but the Lebensgestalt, the shape and story of a life, its human and divine contexts, its whole. Drawing on themes from his oeuvre's entire arc, Resurrected to Eternal Life testifies to the inner unity of Moltmann's theology: the cross, the Spirit, the kingdom, the end, and the hope that makes the end present here and now. Seasoned readers of Moltmann will find in these pages a capstone of a lifetime of theological exploration, while those new to his complex thought will find a concise and elegant entry point into his voluminous work.
