And The Question Became Flesh: Jesus The Catechist In The Gospel Of John, Diana Macalintal

School of Theology and Seminary Graduate Papers/Theses

The locus of encounter with Christ is the community at prayer and the Word
embodied within that community. The promulgation of the Rite of Christian
Initiation of Adults could arguably be seen then as a turning point moment for the Church as it ritualized its move into the postmodern age.
