Book Description
Excerpt from Altar, Cross, and Community Some years ago, in a volume called Ethics and Atonement, I endeavoured to show that the object of the Atonement was ethical; that is, that it was to enable us, in Biblical language, to do righteousness, and that such righteousness was not fulfilled simply by actions of a certain kind, but by the maintenance of certain personal relations. In a second book, Ethics and the Family, I argued that the type of the society in which these relations are adequately maintained is to be found in the family, the society of husband and wife, parents and children, brothers and sisters; and I urged that the universal existence of the family, though in diverse forms, showed that these relations are in the true sense of the word natural to mankind. In these lectures I take up what has long seemed to me a subject connected with both these claims. The rite of sacrifice is almost as widespread as the institution of the family, and I have here given reasons for holding that just as the family, at its best, furnishes the type of moral intercourse between persons, in the same way sacrifice, rightly understood, furnishes the type of the reconciliation by which these relations are made possible; a reconciliation which is the same in principle when both parties are human and when one is divine. The book does not claim to be a treatise on the Atonement. At most, it considers an aspect of the doctrine which no treatise on the Atonement can afford to neglect; the less so because, through the whole history of Christian theology, sacrifice and atonement, the altar and the cross, have been so closely linked together.

Book Description
2022 Catholic Media Association honorable mention in liturgy The dedication of a new church or altar is a rare event that too few Catholic faithful and clergy are privileged to experience. When it happens, people have questions about the history, spirituality, and practical aspects of this amazing liturgy. This book by pastor and liturgical scholar, Fr. Paul Turner, will especially aid parish leadership in celebrating this rite with greater understanding. In addition to the dedication of a new parish church, this book covers all of the other instances from this part of the Roman Pontifical: Laying the foundation stone, dedicating a church already in use, dedicating a new altar inside an older church, blessing a church to be used as a chapel or oratory, blessing an altar for a similar purpose, and the blessing of a chalice and paten. Essential for any serious student of the liturgy and helpful to those planning any of these celebrations, New Church, New Altar will expand the reader’s appreciation of these unusual liturgies so beautifully reformed after the Second Vatican
