Download or read book Praying the Angelus written by Jared Dees and published by Ave Maria Press. This book was released on 2017-03-03 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Angelus is a centuries-old Catholic devotion that recalls the annunciation of Christ’s birth by the Angel Gabriel to the Virgin Mary. In Praying the Angelus, popular author and speaker Jared Dees reinvigorates the devotion, shares intimately from his own experience of it, shows us how to get started, and enriches the practice with original meditations to reflect on the words of both the Angelus and the Regina Caeli. Jared Dees was twenty-seven and in his fourth year of teaching religion in a Catholic school when he first experienced the Angelus. The creator of The Religion Teacher website allows the devotion to anchor his prayer life and challenge him to daily conversion of heart and will. Dees introduces the Angelus devotion and explores its rich history and significance for the Church. As spiritual companion and guide, he offers meditations on the words and images of both the Angelus and the Regina Caeli, which is prayed during the Easter season. We find lessons about the power of repetitive prayer, the humility of being a disciple, the importance of admitting time belongs to God, the wisdom of taking time with discernment, and the joy of resting in the Lord’s presence. He shares personal stories of the life-change power of the Angelus and guides both newcomers and those already familiar with the prayer to contemplate the mysteries of salvation that lie at the heart of the devotion—the Annunciation, Incarnation, and Resurrection. Named for the opening words of the devotion's first prayer in Latin, "The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary," the Angelus is typically prayed at 6:00 a.m., noon, and 6:00 p.m. each day. Likewise the Regina Caeli is named for the opening lines of its prayer, "Queen of heaven, rejoice, alleluia." Praying the Angelus is supported by Dees’s website, TheAngelusPrayer.com, where people can gather online to participate in and share this devotion with others.

Book Messenger of the Heart

Download or read book Messenger of the Heart written by Angelus Silesius and published by World Wisdom, Inc. This book was released on 2005 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Johannes Scheffler assumed the name Angelus Silesius on his leaving the Lutheran church to become a Catholic. He became enmeshed in the bitter controversies of post-Reformation Europe. Soon after his death, however, his masterpiece was claimed by Protestants and Catholics alike as their mystical classic. Frederick Franck shows the poets macro-ecumenical significance in the essay that introduces his translation of these verses, and by adding a "running commentary" of sayings by the ancient Japanese and Chinese masters, with whom this Christian mystic shows a remarkable affinity.

Book The Angelus and Regina Caeli in Latin and English

Download or read book The Angelus and Regina Caeli in Latin and English written by Geoffrey Lopes da Silva and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-04 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Angelus and Regina Caeli in Latin and English (2021) contains everything needed for praying the prayers known as the Angelus Domini and the Regina caeli, which are traditionally prayed in the morning, at midday, and in the evening, usually at 6am, noon, and 6pm. The Angelus Domini (Angel of the Lord) is a Marian prayer devotion in honour of the Incarnation. Rooted in Sacred Scripture, it consists of three versicles with their responses followed by a Hail Mary, a brief concluding verse with its response, and one of two collect prayers from The Roman Missal. During Easter Time, the Angelus is replaced with the Regina cæli (Queen of Heaven). This 12th century prayer consists of a Marian antiphon, followed by a verse with its response, and an Easter collect prayer from The Roman Missal. This 24-page prayer book also includes some other prayers, such as the Prayer for the Pope (oratio pro papa), due to the traditional connection of this devotion with the Holy Father, who leads it almost every Sunday at noon from the window of the Apostolic Palace. Everything is included in both English and Latin, which remains the official language of the Catholic Church.

Book The Foreign Soul   the Angelus

Download or read book The Foreign Soul the Angelus written by Guy de Maupassant and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2008-12-05 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Foreign Soul we are in classic Maupassant territory. Robert Mariolle, a wealthy Parisian bachelor, has just arrived in the fashionable spa town of Aix-les-Bains determined to enjoy himself at the casino in the company of high society, attempting to get over his break up with mistress, Henriette Lambel. The Angelus was intended to be Maupassant's great masterpiece, an ambitious inverted allegory of Christianity into which the author would pour his growing pessimism and despair. Set during the Franco-Prussian War, as were some of Maupassant's finest short stories, The Angelus finds the pregnant Countess de Bremontal alone in her chateau as Prussian troops move into the neighbourhood. Here are the first English translations of Maupassant's two unfinished novels, The Foreign Soul [L'Ame etrangere] and The Angelus [L'Angelus], together with full critical apparatus, including secondary sources outlining Maupassant's future plot ideas and an essay on The Foreign Soul by Paul Bourget.

  • Release : 2016-08-02
  • ISBN : 0451476786
  • Pages : 514 pages

Download or read book The Way of Sorrows written by Jon Steele and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-08-02 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The highly anticipated final book in Jon Steele’s thrilling cosmic Angelus trilogy, The Way of Sorrows counts down the dwindling hours between humanity and the apocalypse. Steele again sets the stage for an epic battle, played out in Alaska, Russia, Switzerland, and ultimately Jerusalem, pitting the protectors of paradise—the eternal angels—against the “goons” of timeless evil. As the forces engage, we find the former escort Katherine Taylor having somehow survived the hideous scorched-earth attack on her Pacific Northwest home, but with no other signs of life in sight. Katherine soon realizes that her memory has been wiped clean, with few clues whether her toddler, Max, the child of prophecy who will guide creation through the next stage of evolution, has been killed or captured. Meanwhile, Detective Jay Harper is once again at Lausanne Cathedral, where he is following a new directive from his immortal, heavenly central command: rescue both Katherine and Max before the goons eliminate all trace of goodness from the world at midnight. What unfolds is a thrill-packed, action-filled journey that spans the globe—and the heavens. Combining science, religion, and fantasy, The Way of Sorrows is a wildly imaginative, inventive, one-of-a-kind finale to Jon Steele’s monumental trilogy.

Book Behind the Angel of History

  • Author : Annie Bourneuf
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2022-09-24
  • ISBN : 0226816702
  • Pages : 160 pages

Download or read book Behind the Angel of History written by Annie Bourneuf and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2022-09-24 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This short book offers a dazzling new interpretation of Paul Klee's most famous work: his Angelus Novus (1920), which was purchased by Walter Benjamin and became the model for his Angel of History, a figure saturated with Jewish mysticism that he introduces in his "Theses on the Philosophy of History." In 2014 the celebrated American artist R. H. Quaytman made a surprising discovery about Klee's work when she examined it at the Jewish Museum in Israel. She realized that Klee had carefully pasted the Angelus down over another image, a face, leaving just a finger's breadth of it showing. Through forensic science and lots of sleuthing it was determined that face belonged to Martin Luther. Behind the Angel of History tells the story of how Quaytman solved the mystery of who lurks behind Klee's angel. It then plunges into questions about why a face long hidden beneath another picture might matter. The book travels through a tangle of loaded conversations among images-from Klee's Angelus to Benjamin's own drawing of a crucified angel, from Klee's Angelus to Quaytman's own layered panels meditating on its secret"--

Download or read book Marialis Cultus written by Holiness Paul and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-01-02 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marialis Cultus is the title of a Mariological Apostolic Exhortation by Pope Paul VI on February 2, 1974. It is subtitled: "For the Right Ordering and Development of Devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary," and focuses Marian devotions, clarifiying the way in which the Roman Catholic Church celebrates and commemorates Mary, the mother of Jesus. The preparation of the document reportedly took 4 years. The exhortation has three parts: Part 1 discusses the history of Catholicism's Marian devotions, as well as their rationale. Part 2 focuses on what should/will take place in the Church's Marian devotions in the future Part 3 touches on the Angelus and the Rosary prayers. Marialis Cultus gives guidelines for devotions to Mary by the Church - that is, it attempts to make sure that all Marian liturgical celebrations and public expressions of devotion align with established doctrine. It noted that every element of the church's prayer life, including Marian devotions, should draw its inspiration from the Bible and harmonize with the liturgy. The conclusion to the document emphasizes the theological and pastoral value of devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary.
