Book excerpt: Le 28 octobre 1999, l'Église catholique a célébré le 400e anniversaire de la naissance de Marie Guyard, connue aujourd'hui sous le nom de Sainte Marie de l'Incarnation, canonisée le 3 avril 2014 au Palais apostolique par le pape François, La Thérèse du Nouveau Monde. Je souhaite que cette simple recherche sur la prière de Marie de l'Incarnation, réalisée en 1999, soit considérée comme un acte d'admiration et de reconnaissance envers Dieu le Père qui a fait de cette humble femme un témoin lumineux de son amour dans le début de l'Église en Amérique du Nord. À l'heure actuelle, le New Age est à la recherche de nouvelles voies de connaissance pour atteindre le Divin. Pourquoi cherche-t-on aussi dans l'ésotérisme le contact avec les pouvoirs de l'Au-delà? Notre monde a faim de spiritualité. Marie Guyard, dès l'âge de sept ans, éprouvait la faim de Dieu. Grâce à l'Esprit Saint qui l'habitait depuis son baptême, elle connut très tôt le chemin vers Dieu le Père: ce chemin pour elle fut Jésus qu'elle rencontrait dans l'Église, qui lui parlait dans l'Écriture, qui l'unissait à lui-même dans la l'Eucharistie, et qui lui enseignait les mystères divins par l'action de l'Esprit Saint. Quelles ont été les lignes de force de la prière de Marie Guyard? Comment l'a-t-elle nourrie alors qu'elle travaillait pour son beau-frère sur les quais de Tours ainsi qu'elle enseignait aux jeunes filles algonquines et françaises pendant ses premières années de la fondation de Québec durant la première moitié du dix-septième siècle? Quels sont les piliers de sa vie contemplative et apostolique? C'est pour répondre à ces questions que j'ai choisi de réfléchir sur les fondements de la prière de Marie de l'Incarnation. Avec quelle nourriture spirituelle a-t-elle nourri sa prière et son union intime avec Dieu? Après avoir lu quelques-unes de ses Lettres et quelques commentaires sur sa spiritualité, je crois pouvoir retenir deux sources principales: tout d'abord, la Parole de Dieu, qui lui parlait dans l'Écriture Sainte. Puis, j'ajoute les sacrements, en particulier, l'Eucharistie, que Jésus a confiés à son Église pour donner à ses fidèles la vie de la grâce et qui sont célébrés dans la liturgie sacrée, la prière de l'Église. A partir de ces deux sources, l'Écriture Sainte et la Liturgie. Je montrerai brièvement comment ces sources ont influencé la vie spirituelle de Marie de l'Incarnation, tout comme elles doivent d'être les sources de la vie de prière de tout chrétien.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On October 28, 1999, the Catholic Church celebrated the 400th anniversary of the birth of Marie Guyard, known now as Saint Marie de l'Incarnation (canonized 3 April 2014 at the Apostolic Palace by Pope Francis), "The Teresa of the New World." I wish this simple research on Marie de l'Incarnation's prayer (conducted in 1999) to be considered as an act of admiration and gratitude to God the Father who made this humble woman a luminous witness of His love in the beginning of the Church in North America. At the present time, the New Age is searching for new ways of knowledge to reach God. Why does one search in esoterism for the path to God? Marie Guyard, even when she was seven years old, already knew the path to God the Father: this path for her was Jesus whom she met in the Church, who spoke to her in the Scripture, who united her to himself in the Eucharist, and who taught her the divine mysteries through the action of the Holy Spirit.What were the lines of force of Marie Guyard's prayer? How did she nourish it while working for her brother-in law on the docks of Tours as well as teaching Algonquin and French girls in the early years of Quebec City? What are the pillars of her contemplative and apostolic life? It is to answer those questions that I chose to reflect on the foundations of Marie de l'Incarnation's prayer. With what spiritual food did she feed her prayer and her intimate union with God? After having read her letters and some commentaries on her spirituality, Fr. Legault underlines two important sources: first, the Word of God, speaking in Holy Scripture. Second, the sacraments, especially the Eucharist, that Jesus entrusted to his Church to give the life of grace and which are celebrated in the sacred Liturgy, the prayer of the Church. From these two sources - Holy Scripture and Liturgy - he shows how they influenced Marie de l'Incarnation's spiritual life and are the sources of each Christian's life of prayer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uniquely authoritative and wide-ranging in its scope, The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church is the indispensable one-volume reference work on all aspects of the Christian Church. It contains over 6,000 cross-referenced A-Z entries, and offers unrivalled coverage of all aspects of this vast and often complex subject, including theology, churches and denominations, patristic scholarship, the bible, the church calendar and its organization, popes, archbishops, saints, and mystics. In this revision, innumerable small changes have been made to take into account shifts in scholarly opinion, recent developments, such as the Church of England's new prayer book (Common Worship), RC canonizations, ecumenical advances and mergers, and, where possible, statistics. A number of existing articles have been rewritten to reflect new evidence or understanding, for example the Holy Sepulchre entry, and there are a few new articles. Perhaps most significantly, a great number of the bibliographies have been updated. Established since its first appearance in 1957 as an essential resource for ordinands, clergy, and members of religious orders, ODCC is an invaluable tool for academics, teachers, and students of church history and theology, as well as for the general reader.

Download or read book Western Plainchant written by David Hiley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 764 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plainchant is the oldest substantial body of music that has been preserved in any shape or form. It was first written down in Western Europe in the eighth to ninth centuries. Many thousands of chants have been sung at different times or places in a multitude of forms and styles, responding to the differing needs of the church through the ages. This book provides a clear and concise introduction, designed both for those to whom the subject is new and those who require a reference work for advanced study. It begins with an explanation of the liturgies that plainchant was designed to serve. It describes all the chief genres of chant, different types of liturgical book, and plainchant notations. After an exposition of early medieval theoretical writing on plainchant, Hiley provides a historical survey that traces the constantly changing nature of the repertory. He also discusses important musicians and centers of composition. Copiously illustrated with over 200 musical examples, this book highlights the diversity of practice and richness of the chant repertory in the Middle Ages. It will be an indispensable introduction and reference source on this important music for many years to come.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE SPIRITUAL LIFE: A TREATISE ON ASCETICAL AND MYSTICAL THEOLOGY REVEREND ADOLPHE TANQUEREY — A Catholic Classic! — Two Parts of Four Books in One — Includes 1,773 Active Linked Footnotes — Includes Active Linked Headings, Index and Table of Contents — Includes Religious Illustrations Publisher: Available in Paperbacks: FIRST PART: ISBN-13: 978-1-78379-507-9 SECOND PART: ISBN-13: 978-1-78379-508-6 It is the writer’s conviction that Dogma is the foundation of Ascetical Theology and that an exposition of what God has done and still does for us is the most efficacious motive of true devotion. Hence, care has been taken to recall briefly the truths of faith on which the spiritual life rests. This treatise then is first of all doctrinal in character and aims at bringing out the fact that Christian perfection is the logical outcome of dogma, especially of the central dogma of the Incarnation. The work however is also practical, for a vivid realization of the truths of faith is the strongest incentive to earnest and steady efforts towards the correction of faults and the practice of virtues. Consequently in the first part of this treatise the practical conclusions that naturally flow from revealed truths and the general means of perfection are developed. The second part contains a more detailed exposition of the special means of advancing along the Three Ways towards the heights of perfection. Contents: FIRST PART: Principles SECOND PART: The Three Ways BOOK I: The Purification of the Soul or the Purgative Way BOOK II: The Illuminative Way BOOK III: The Unitive Way PUBLISHER: CATHOLIC WAY PUBLISHING

Regardless of how often we wait or upon what, Jeannie Ewing explains with clarity and encouragement how we can use the moments of waiting in our lives to grow spiritually.
