  Foundational Theology : A New Approach To Catholic Fundamental Theology

  $81.66

  Fundamental theology is traditionally viewed as the starting point for the various disciplines within Catholic theology; it is the place where solid foundations are established for the further research and engagement with the vast terrain of historical, systematic, philosophical, and sacramental/liturgical theology. In Foundational Theology, a landmark new study, Neil Ormerod and Christiaan Jacobs-Vandegeer seek to ground foundational theology in the normative drive toward meaning, truth, goodness, and beauty, appropriated by the theologian through religious, moral, intellectual, and psychic conversions. In doing so, the work maps out the implications of those fundamental orientations to the specific questions and topics of the Catholic theological tradition: God, Trinity, revelation, and an array of doctrinal points of investigation. The authors in this work provide a comprehensive approach to theological foundations for theologians while employing a new, groundbreaking approach to the discipline through the application of the insights of Bernard Lonergan, one of the foremost Catholic theologians of the modern era.

  Creation Grace And Redemption

  $28.00

  ‘A true integration of the old and the new-yielding creative insights into both contemporary life and traditional theological questions. A must for any theologically informed lay person or scholar-not for the reference shelf but for the nightstand!’ -Cynthia S. W. Crysdale.
  The book provides a solid introduction to the themes of creation, grace, and redemption, integrating classical and modern theological resources with perspectives from science, cultural studies, and interfaith dialogue. From the Big Bang to cosmic consummation, from birth to death, the big questions of life emerge. Where does human existence stand in a cosmos some fifteen billion years old and seemingly indifferent to human suffering? This book explores Christian responses to these questions in an accessible style perfectly adapted to classroom use.
