In His Saintly Patience, John Henry Cardinal Newman Lifts Up The Church’S People, Michael W. Higgins
Mission Integration & Ministry Publications
This Oct. 13, John Henry Cardinal Newman will be made a saint. It’s about time.

The Catholic Intellectual Tradition And Its Dynamics, Jean Ehret
The Catholic Intellectual Tradition And Its Dynamics, Jean Ehret
Mission Integration & Ministry Publications
Throughout the papers of this book, the CIT appears not to be an abstract concept but a dynamic reality, a powerful source of inspiration for imagining creative ways to face the challenges of life in today’s world. Critical voices question the reference to Catholicism, others to a tradition. While addressing these issues helps to prevent the CIT from becoming the victim from either unreligious or traditionalist misconceptions, a synthetic approach will try to reveal fundamental dynamisms of the CIT that allow to identify it without reducing its inherent complexity and historical diversity, including its expressions yet to come.

We want to develop in them the intelligence and compassion needed …

The Catholic Character Of Catholic Universities, Anthony J. Cernera
The Catholic Character Of Catholic Universities, Anthony J. Cernera
Mission Integration & Ministry Publications
The signs of the times, that we are living in the midst of, are dramatic, suggesting perhaps radical challenges, but potentially wonderful opportunities, for humanity and the Church, e.g., globalization; the pervasiveness of secularization in the Western world; the encounter with Islam and the increased importance of inter-religious dialogue; the geographical shift of the center of Catholicism; the scientific-technological revolution; the reality of the poor; and the emerging crisis of global warming are among the most significant.
As the Catholic Church emerges as a truly global church, Catholic universities have an essential role to play in its mission in the …
