In September of 2014 thirty new members were appointed for a
five-year term to the Vatican's International Theological
Commission. These theologians, clerical and lay, were chosen from
twenty-six different countries and from five continents. The
commission was charged with composing three documents of
contemporary theological importance, one of which was that of the
relationship between faith and the sacraments. This finished
document was published, with the approval of the Congregation for
the Doctrine of the Faith and by Pope Francis in Spanish in early
2020 under the title: La Reciprocidad entre Fe y Sacramentos en la
Economia Sacramental. A subsequent English translation was
published thereafter under the title The Reciprocity Between Faith
and Sacraments in the Sacramental Economy. This present volume
contains the text of the English translation. There follows an
introduction by a member of the ITC, Thomas G. Weinandy, OFM, Cap.,
and subsequently followed by six explanatory and interpretive
commentaries on various chapters of the document. Dr. John Yocum
considers the contemporary relevance of the topic. Dr. Christopher
Ruddy examines the dialogical nature of the sacramental economy of
salvation. Dr. Jennifer Holmes Martin discusses the relationship
between faith and the sacraments of initiation. There are two
commentaries for section four concerning faith and the sacrament of
marriage. Professor John Grabowski treats the strictly theological
issues relating to faith and marriage. Canonist Timothy Cavanaugh
takes up the canonical issues regarding faith and its relationship
to enacting a valid sacramental marriage. Dr. Daniel Keating rounds
off the commentaries by surveying the conclusion of the document,
that is, the present need for evangelization so as to enliven the
faith of the faithful, and the present relevance of the new
ecclesial movements within the Church today. These commentaries are
aimed at aiding priests and seminarians as they address or prepare
to address the pastoral and theological concerns they encounter or
will encounter on a daily basis. This volume could also be used in
parish adult education groups as well, wherein the laity could
better understand the relationship between faith and the
sacraments.
