Practicing The Order Of Widows: A New Call For An Old Vocation, M. Therese Lysaught Mar 2005

Practicing The Order Of Widows: A New Call For An Old Vocation, M. Therese Lysaught

M. Therese Lysaught

This essay argues for a renewed institution of an ancient Christian practice, the Order of Widows. Drawing on the Roman Catholic tradition's recent writings on the elderly, particularly the 1998 document from the Pontifical Council for the Laity entitled “The Dignity of Older People and their Mission in the Church and in the World,” I argue that we find within the Roman Catholic tradition advocacy for a renewed understanding of the vocation of the elderly within the Church. Building on this, I then trace in the broadest of outlines some elements of what a renewal of the Order of Widows …

The Mystical Body Of Christ And Communion Ecclesiology: Historical Parallels, Edward Hahnenberg Dec 2004

The Mystical Body Of Christ And Communion Ecclesiology: Historical Parallels, Edward Hahnenberg

Edward P Hahnenberg

Recognizing that the Church cannot be encompassed by a single and eternal ecclesiology, and that there are stages in the development of the Church's self-understanding, the author examines the history and development of two of the dominant twentieth century models : the earlier Mystical Body ecclesiologies, and the post-conciliar Communion/ Koinonia models. They contain interesting parallels, one of which is the risk of ignoring the concrete Church — the mystery manifested in history. What ecclesiological models may next rise to dominance?

The Intellectual Origins Of Popular Catholicism: Catholic Moral Theology In The Age Of Enlightenment, Michael Printy Dec 2004

The Intellectual Origins Of Popular Catholicism: Catholic Moral Theology In The Age Of Enlightenment, Michael Printy

Michael Printy

The popular Catholic revival of the nineteenth century was preceded by an intellectual revolution that enabled the Catholic Church to overcome its traditional suspicion of popular religious practices. Central to this transformation was the elaboration of the moral-theological doctrine of equiprobabilism in response to rigorist Augustinian moral pessimism, most fruitfully by Alphonsus of Liguori (1696-1787). His moral theology would set the Church in confrontation with the Catholic Enlightenment. On account of this shift in moral theology, Catholicism was best able of the major Christian churches to preserve within its institutional fold the broad religious revival of the nineteenth century.
