Discerniendo Vocaciones al Matrimonio, Celibato y Soltería by Elias Chacour Pdf

Este libro es continuación de otro trabajo de los mismos autores publicado bajo el título: Llamados Por Dios: Una Reflexión Teológica en Torno a la Vocación y Compromiso de por Vida (Madrid, Editorial de Espiritualidad EDE, 1994). Desde una perspectiva relacional y evolutiva sobre el misterio de la vocación, los autores exponen en el siguiente estudio los principios de discernimiento para la vida de matrimonio cristiano, de vida célibe o de vida soltera. En la vocación al matrimonio, ven como elemento fundamental la llamada de Dios a ambos cónyuges a ser instrumento único y especialísimo en el proceso de purificaciónón y transformación espiritual del otro. Identifican la base de la vocación al celibato con una especial relación entre Jesús y la persona célibe que hace a ésta prácticamente “incasable”, “indesposable” (por así decirlo) por Cristo y por su Evangelio. Juzgan que lo propio de la vocación a la vida de soltería es el testimonio de cierta independencia por la causa del Reino. A la luz de lo que es primordial de cada vocación, los autores presentan señales que parecen indicar una llamada auténtica. Este libro puede resultar de interés no solo para quienes estén discerniendo su vocación personal, sino también para los/as guías que estén acompañándoles en este proceso.

The Oxford Handbook of the Reception History of the Bible by Michael Lieb,Emma Mason,Jonathan Roberts Pdf

In recent decades, reception history has become an increasingly important and controversial topic of discussion in biblical studies. Rather than attempting to recover the original meaning of biblical texts, reception history focuses on exploring the history of interpretation. In doing so it locates the dominant historical-critical scholarly paradigm within the history of interpretation, rather than over and above it. At the same time, the breadth of material and hermeneutical issues that reception history engages with questions any narrow understanding of the history of the Bible and its effects on faith communities. The challenge that reception history faces is to explore tradition without either reducing its meaning to what faith communities think is important, or merely offering anthologies of interesting historical interpretations. This major new handbook addresses these matters by presenting reception history as an enterprise (not a method) that questions and understands tradition afresh. The Oxford Handbook of the Reception History of the Bible consciously allows for the interplay of the traditional and the new through a two-part structure. Part I comprises a set of essays surveying the outline, form, and content of twelve key biblical books that have been influential in the history of interpretation. Part II offers a series of in-depth case studies of the interpretation of particular key biblical passages or books with due regard for the specificity of their social, cultural or aesthetic context. These case studies span two millennia of interpretation by readers with widely differing perspectives. Some are at the level of a group response (from Gnostic readings of Genesis, to Post-Holocaust Jewish interpretations of Job); others examine individual approaches to texts (such as Augustine and Pelagius on Romans, or Gandhi on the Sermon on the Mount). Several chapters examine historical moments, such as the 1860 debate over Genesis and evolution, while others look to wider themes such as non-violence or millenarianism. Further chapters study in detail the works of popular figures who have used the Bible to provide inspiration for their creativity, from Dante and Handel, to Bob Dylan and Dan Brown.

Chastity Is for Lovers by Arleen Spenceley Pdf

Winner of a 2015 Catholic Press Award: Books for Teens and Young Adults (First Place). In 2012, journalist Arleen Spenceley outed herself as a twenty-six-year-old virgin in a Tampa Bay Times op-ed that went viral. In Chastity Is for Lovers, Spenceley expands on that piece, advocating Catholic teaching on sex and marriage with candor and humor, and without judgment. In her debut book, seasoned journalist and self-professed “happy virgin” Arleen Spenceley offers a mature, funny, and relatable vision of Catholic teaching on chastity for young adults. Chastity Is for Lovers provides perspective on a variety of topics—the difference between chastity and abstinence, how virginity is an affirming and valuable life choice, how the word “purity” can be harmful in ministry settings, how to date well, and why sexual self-control is the best form of marriage preparation—and gives single adults the best possible chance to find true love. She carefully avoids using language that shames readers and instead presents a view of chastity that is joyful and positive.
