Exploring Catholic Theology – Essays on God, Liturgy, and Evangelization
Baker Academic, Div of Baker Publishing Group (Verlag)
978-0-8010-9750-8 (ISBN)
Robert Barron is one of the Catholic Church's premier theologians and author of the influential The Priority of Christ. In this volume, Barron sets forth a thoroughgoing vision for an evangelical catholic theology that is steeped in the tradition and engaged with the contemporary world. Striking a balance between academic rigor and accessibility, the book covers issues of perennial interest in the twenty-first-century church: who God is, how to rightly worship him, and how his followers engage contemporary culture. Topics include the doctrine of God, Catholic theology, philosophy, liturgy, and evangelizing the culture. This work will be of special interest to readers concerned about the so-called "new atheism."
Robert Barron (STD, Institut Catholique de Paris) is auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. He founded Word on Fire, a Catholic ministry of evangelism, and previously served as rector of Mundelein Seminary and president of the University of St. Mary of the Lake. Barron has written numerous books, including Catholicism (over 100,000 copies sold) and 2 Samuel in the Brazos Theological Commentary on the Bible.
