THE PEOPLE'S CELEBRATION OF THE EUCHARIST

FINTAN LYONS

The Eucharist is more than just a rite performed by a presiding priest in the presence of a congregation, though for many centuries it was seen by so many to be just that. The truth, however, is that its celebration, when viewed as an activity of the People of God, the Body of Christ, means that there is a fundamental unity incorporating both ordained and non-ordained. From a d...

DREAMING A NEW DREAM

JIM DEEDS

Pope Francis has said that we are not only in an era of change, but also in a change of era. Such fundamental and immediate change that faces the Church in Ireland could lead us to retreat into ourselves. It could lead to a kind of false conservatism where we confuse fearful clinging on to old habits as making a stand for tradition. This response leads us to be closed in on our...

SYNODALITY AND THE RECOVERY OF VATICAN II

STEPHEN MCKINNEY

In less than a decade the notion of ‘synodality’ has emerged as a central theme in Catholic life and thought, especially in Catholics’ self-reflection on who they are as the People of God: ecclesiology. The notion of the Church as ‘synodal’ has early roots in the many councils and synods of the early churches, east and west, but now this notion has emerged from the history of c...

A VANISHING WORLD

ROBERT O'BYRNE

Jesuit priest and amateur photographer, Fr Francis Browne is renowned for his images of the Titanic. However, much less well-known are the pictures that Fr Browne took of Irish country houses over a decade from 1946 onward. At the time, these buildings were still private properties, mostly in the hands of their original families and not open to the public. Somehow, this gentle-...

LIVING THE CAMINO BACK HOME

BRENDAN MCMANUS

The authors have worked for some years as Camino Companions, a ministry for welcoming pilgrims in Santiago de Compostella. In the course of their work they noticed that as well as providing a space for pilgrims to tell their unique Camino stories while in Santiago, pilgrims wanted help to reflect on the importance and relevance for their lives back home (the real Camino!).

CHRIST'S SEVEN WORDS FROM THE CROSS

JOHN MANN

As the Church Year passes, we anticipate the next festival and season, in much the same way as gardeners look for the first signs of spring or the first frosts of winter, as they plan their planting activities. So, in the Church, Advent passes into Christmas and Epiphany with a speed that seems driven by activity as much as reflection; but the approach of Ash Wednesday can cat...

DANCING WITH LONELINESS

JOSÉ MARÍA R. OLAIZOLA SJ

Loneliness and connection are not enemies, rather two facets of everyone’s life. We just need to get to know them. That’s especially true of loneliness, so that, far from being oppressive or a threat, it can become an opportunity or a learning point. Through loneliness we can learn to bond with ourselves and with others. Far from consuming our self-esteem or wearing us out, alo...

THE PARISH AS OASIS

KEVIN HARGADEN / CIARA MURPHY

The Parish as Oasis is a practical and accessible introduction to how local churches can contribute to the healing the environmental crisis. A notable feature of this book is that it does not engage with that crisis. “Climate change” can be a contentious cultural issue. And “climate despair” can be a pressing pastoral issue. By focusing on practical and accessible “experiments”...

DISCOVER GOD DAILY

JIM DEEDS / BRENDAN MCMANUS

One of the traps in the spiritual life is assuming that things will happen miraculously in one dramatic, unrepeatable moment. The authors illustrate the “slow work of God” (Teilhard de Chardin), an unfolding of God’s plan for our lives over time, as a much more helpful and humanising way to look at faith. Using details from the life of St Ignatius Loyola. The 7 stages of Ignati...

BECOMING A PASTORAL PARISH COUNCIL

PATRICIA CARROLL

This book has been written in a year when Parish Pastoral Councils (PPC) could not meet physically due to the Covid 19 pandemic.

It is hoped that those who read this book will have an "aha" moment, where they find that the purpose of...

CHANNELLING THE INNER FIRE

BRENDAN MCMANUS

Many people are good people and genuine “searchers”, but often lack the practical methods and ‘tools’ to know how to deepen their faith. Often the idea about ‘faith’ that they have inherited is not helpful, and they need something real and experiential that helps with the complexity of contemporary living. This book redefines spirituality as about “channelling the inner fire”...

HEARERS OF THE WORD

KIERAN J O'MAHONY

The readings for Lent in year C are mostly from Luke, with the emphasis falling on conversion and reconciliation (even the “stray” reading from John 8:1-11 is Lukan in tone). This year, the narrative arc from the Old Testament begins with a very ancient Israelite creed, “A wandering Aramean was my ancestor,” a mysteriously inspiring narrative. In a markedly consistent way, the ...

DIVINE DIAMOND

The Gospel of John (‘the Fourth Gospel’) is presented through the symbol of a diamond.

Like light falling on a diamond and flowing from facet to facet the th...
