Mystical Way In Everyday Life
$24.00Add to cartRahner was one of the 20th century’s most admired Catholic theologians; he was associated with the Nouvelle Theologie, which, though much criticized by Pope Pius XII, became one of the sources of reform that led to the development of Vatican II. This new collection of his writings is the first English translation in this country of a book that appeared in German as long ago as 1966, but it is a welcome addition to the Rahner catalog in English. Although mysticism is not perhaps the first word associated with Rahner, mysticism connects what Rahner saw as God’s self-giving and our need for the transcendent, as found in that God. Organized around the liturgical year, Rahner’s text includes sermons, prayers, and reflections. VERDICT A beautiful and concise introduction to the mind and spirituality of this crucial 20th-century Catholic theologian.
