Book Luke 1   9

    Book Details:
  • Author : Barbara E. Reid
  • Publisher : Liturgical Press
  • Release : 2021-01-15
  • ISBN : 0814681921
  • Pages : 408 pages

Download or read book Luke 1 9 written by Barbara E. Reid and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2021-01-15 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because there are more women in the Gospel of Luke than in any other gospel, feminists have given it much attention. In this commentary, Shelly Matthews and Barbara Reid show that feminist analysis demands much more than counting the number of female characters. Feminist biblical interpretation examines how the female characters function in the narrative and also scrutinizes the workings of power with respect to empire, to anti-Judaism, and to other forms of othering. Matthews and Reid draw attention to the ambiguities of the text-both the liberative possibilities and the ways that Luke upholds the patriarchal status quo-and guide readers to empowering reading strategies.

Book Music and Meaning in the Mass

Download or read book Music and Meaning in the Mass written by AnnaMaria Cardinalli-Padilla and published by Sophia Institute Press. This book was released on 2020-08-04 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As musicians, we routinely witness — and personally experience — the powerful influence music has over our bodies, emotions, and minds. As parish musicians, our task is to wield this power in service of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus on the altar. Indeed, your music, by speaking to humanity in a language deeper than words, can save our world by drawing souls to Christ where He most longs to encounter them — in the Eucharist. Nothing can spark and fan the flames of desire — of longing, love, awe, and reverence — quite like music can when it is skillfully directed to the task. That’s why I’ve written Music and Meaning in the Mass — to guide you carefully through the principles that help draw congregants into active participation in the Mass. Rather than advocating any particular musical style in the liturgy,

Book The Sunday Lectionary

    Book Details:
  • Author : Normand Bonneau
  • Publisher : Liturgical Press
  • Release : 1998
  • ISBN : 9780814624579
  • Pages : 198 pages

Download or read book The Sunday Lectionary written by Normand Bonneau and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sunday Lectionary examines a key aspect of the liturgical use of the Bible: how the Lectionary puts biblical flesh on the bones of the liturgical calendar and gives paschal shape to the Christian year. Although the current Lectionary has been in use since 1969, its history, purpose, and structure remains relatively unknown to the many who proclaim or hear its readings. The Sunday Lectionary contributes to a theology of proclamation by explaining the principles that underlie the Lectionary's selection of biblical passages and its patterns of reading distribution that structure the Sundays, feast days, and seasons of the liturgical year.
