Abstract

Azusa, Rome, and Zion offers historical, theological, and spiritual reflections on major movements of the Holy Spirit in modern times. The author shows where the lived experience of these movements challenges received theological concepts and categories, and indicates how engagement with these challenges can contribute to Christian reconciliation and Christian unity. Of particular interest are the surprising ways in which what appear at first sight to be new obstacles and points of division can in fact lead into deeper grasp of God's purposes for the body of Christ. Two chapters indicate the i

Abstract

This book offers fresh insights into the contemporary state of Ecumenism. Following the election of Pope Francis, there has been a significant thaw in ecumenical relations, and there are grounds for thinking that this will continue into the future. The twelve chapters, written both by experienced ecumenical theologians as well as younger scholars, that have been gathered together in this collection, offer one of the first detailed assessments of the impact of Francis’ papacy on ecumenical dialogue. Drawing on ecumenical methodology, as well as many practical examples and illustrations, the authors discuss the developments in culture and missiology as these affect the practice of ecumenism, particular in response to theologies of hope as well as inter-religious dialogue and pluralism. What emerges is a clear sense of hope for the future in a rapidly changing world and even a sense of optimism that real ecumenical progress might be made. .

Abstract

De quelle révolution le pape François est-il le nom ?De l’accomplissement de Vatican II.Rompt-il avec ses prédécesseurs ?Non, il parachève leur mission.Comment ?En « renversant la pyramide ».Mais qu’est-ce que cela signifie ?Qu’en plaçant la Miséricorde en tête des noms de Dieu, le pape François nous fait entrer dans toutes les dimensions de l’Église : prisme de communion, polyèdre de convergence, dialogue des confessions, des religions et des cultures, multiple des charismes infinis du Peuple de Dieu dans son annonce de l’unique Évangile au service de l’humanité une.Le corps du Christ est aussi le temple de l’Esprit. Écoute, discernement, synodalité, mouvement, témoignage : en écartant fausses idées et craintes paralysantes, ce sont les paroles et les directives, le magistère même de François qu’éclaire ici le frère Ghislain Lafont.En ce début de xxie siècle, l’appel du pape à la liberté, lancé en communion avec tout ce qui est juste et vrai dans les Églises et dans le monde, montre que le christianisme total n’en est peut-être encore qu’à ses débuts. Une bonne nouvelle !

Abstract

With the promulgation of the motu proprio Mitis iudex Dominus Iesus for the Latin Church and the motu proprio Mitis et misericors Iesus for the Eastern Catholic Churches, both dated August 15, 2015, Pope Francis addressed the calls during the Third Extraordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops (October 5-9, 2014) for a simplified procedure for the declaration of the nullity of marriages. Pope Francis introduced a briefer process to be conducted by the diocesan bishop and he simplified the current ordinary nullity process. The new procedural norms went into effect on December 8, 2015.New legislation always challenges first and foremost the practitioner: how is the new legislation to be understood and applied? Immediately after the new law was made public, a number of articles on this new legislation were published in The Jurist. The School of Canon Law of The Catholic University of America organized a March 2016 Workshop on the very topic of this important procedural reform.These articles are now brought together in one volume to assist those who work with these norms in the various tribunals dealing with marriage cases. It is hoped that this volume will be of great service to all those who serve the people of God in the ministry of justice, and that these contributions will truly be a help in understanding and applying the new norms.
