There were radical changes in the Order of Mass promulgated by Pope
Paul VI in 1969. Beyond the use of the vernacular, these included a
more dialogic format of the Mass, the transformation of the
offertory rite to a preparation of gifts, a complete revision of
the lectionary, new eucharistic prayers, and Communion under both
forms. In Eucharistic Adoration after Vatican II, Edward Foley
examines the relationship between Vatican II, liturgical prayer,
and contemporary eucharistic adoration and devotions.
Married and family life around the world has undergone a revolution
in the last several decades: the radical democratization of
intimacy in spousal and parent-child relationships. Previous
principles of hierarchy, inequality, and duty that defined the
relationships between husband, wife, and children have been
challenged and often replaced by more fluid bonds of equality,
intimacy, emotional self-disclosure, communication, and mutual
trust. The key question that has emerged for our times, then, is
how exactly do families sustain genuine mutuality, democracy, and
strong relationships? Figuring out good answers to this question is
the major theme of this book and the origin of the title Mutuality
Matters. Three common strategies for creating just marriages have
arisen: political and legal reform, smarter negotiating by women,
and new cultural perceptions of marriage. While the authors in this
book attend to all three strategies to different degrees, the
primary focus is the third strategy: changing our cultural
understanding of women and men in marriage. Moreover, to effect
genuine cultural change, the authors recognize the need to enlist
the help of religion as a key culture-forming element. Mutuality
has become a common way for theologians from a variety of
perspectives to talk about a more just love, a love that combines
affection and justice. But many questions have been left
unanswered: What exactly do people believe they have promised when
they align themselves with Christian claims about love in their
rituals of marriage and partnership? Do Christian views of love
include the ideal of justice in marriage? Because accommodation or
sacrifice is inevitable in any intimate human community, how can
families insure that it will be mutual and just? How is marriage
strengthened if justice is added to love at the core of mutuality?
What does mutuality mean across time and distance, when
participants are parents and children, when fathers are absent,
when parents should be honored, or within a violent context? Is it
possible to have democratic families without mutual sacrifice? Can
submission be mutual? On these and other questions, the authors of
this volume claim distinctive responsibility for rethinking
Christian convictions about love and family life around the theme
of mutuality and for strengthening the ministry of religious
communities as those communities seek to empower and support
families in their practice of mutuality. The essays written for
this volume reflect the development of practical theology as one
method for exploring the religious meanings of family and enhancing
the practice of family living by 1) assuming that all theory has
implications for practice and all practices are theory laden and 2)
drawing into dialogue the knowledge and interpretations of a
variety of perspectives including philosophy, biblical criticism,
anthropology, liturgical studies, pastoral care, ethics,
cross-cultural studies, and religious education. This collection of
essays is noteworthy for both this interdisciplinary scope and its
richly ecumenical representation.
While admitting particular parameters and priorities for Roman
Catholic preachers, this volume was intentionally envisioned as a
handbook for "catholic" preaching in the broadest and most
universal sense of that term. Cosponsored by the Catholic Academy
of Liturgy, the Catholic Association of Teachers of Homiletics, and
the Federation of Diocesan Liturgical Commissions, it covers the
role of the Scriptures in preaching, the challenges of preaching in
a digital age, sermonizing in an interfaith context, and the need
for a liberative and prophetic word that cuts across denominations
and even faith traditions. Intended to aid those who teach or
direct the preaching arts, the design and writing style of this
book are particularly calibrated to graduate students in
ministerial studies. Every article is a self-contained overview of
a particular historical period, genre of preaching, homiletic
theory, or contemporary issue. This more encyclopedic
approach-devoid of footnotes, yet supported by pertinent
bibliography and an extensive index-provides a sufficiently rich
yet thoroughly accessible gateway to major facets of the preaching
arts at this stage of the twenty-first century. General Editor:

Theological reflection - connecting real life, ministry, and
religious traditions - is a core component of most pastoral
training. It is also a hallmark of practical theology and a common
spiritual exercise among ordinary Christians trying to discern how
their beliefs might influence daily living. Yet, our society is
increasingly pluralistic, with growing numbers of people from
varying belief systems - from Islam to Buddhism - as well as an
increasing number of atheists. In this book, Edward Foley
reimagines theological reflection in interfaith contexts and with
those of no faith tradition. The book addresses and celebrates
diverse beliefs, and envisions the practice of theological
reflection in such contexts. Theological Reflection Across
Religious Traditions introduces readers to the basics of
traditional forms of theological reflection, then considers how it
might be reconceived in different contexts - from interfaith
ministers working together to reduce poverty and homelessness to
people of diverse or no faith traditions strategizing to secure the
dignity of undocumented immigrants. Beyond suggestions for
collaborative social action, the book offers tools for productive
interfaith conversation through a process Foley calls "reflective
believing." This is a groundbreaking rethinking of theological
reflection for today's world, proposing that people across the
religious landscape can participate in reflective believing for
personal and communal benefit without sacrificing their own
integrity.

The 2002 "Institutio Generalis Missalis Romani(IGMR) "comes at
an important moment in the history of Roman Catholicism. The Church
has come through the dramatic reforms of Vatican II and more than a
generation has engaged in the contemporary liturgical practices.
New churches have been built and texts and songs written that
reflect the post 'Vatican II approach to liturgy. In view of these
many changes there are yet concerns about what norms best
articulate the liturgical Vision embedded in the documents of
Vatican II and what directives are most appropriate for shaping the
full, active, and conscious participation of the faithful.
This commentary by members of the Catholic Academy of Liturgy is
attentive to these concerns. While maintaining a balanced view of
the reVisions, the authors provide thoughtful analysis of the
theological, pastoral, and ecclesial implications of the 2002
"IGMR." Several prefatory chapters reflecting on the overall
significance of the current Instruction are followed by a concise
and meaningful chapter-by-chapter commentary.
In addition to the full text of the Instruction in Latin and
English, readers will find a varied and rich commentary by top
liturgical scholars. No single author's viewpoint dominates, and
yet the authors offer a consistent, readable text for everyone
interested in the current state of liturgy in the Catholic
Church.
The reform of the liturgy has dramatically changed the way Roman
Catholics and al Christians understand their worship. The arena of
the encounter has shifted from a passive experience of observation
of the great Mysteries to one that invites active participation on
many levels. Yet, the imagination of many who preach, preside, and
gather to worship continues to be shaped by a passive model as well
as by the notion of sacramental activity as a product to be
received or given, rather than expressed and shared in communion
with one another. In "The Holy Preaching," Paul Janowiak deepens
the discussion of Christ's presence in the Word by offering
critical reflection on the disparity between the theology and the
practice of preaching and some explanation as to why that disparity
exists.
Janowiak provides an overview of twentieth-century ecclesial
sacramentality. He discusses the liturgical movements and important
theological issues that led to reform and provides an in-depth
analysis of how sacramental theologians Karl Rahner, Otto
Semelroth, and Edward Schillebeeckx advanced the dialogue of
Christ's presence in the Word. He explains that despite the seminal
work done by those sacramental theologians, a specifically
liturgical understanding of Christ's presence in the Word remains
largely a theological concept and not a grace-filled reality. Part
of this gap in theory and practice is the result of a fractured
liturgical celebration. The Liturgy of the Word appears a distinct
and often unrelated part of the entire eucharistic celebration.
Using contemporary literary theory, Janowiak tackles this gap and
roots out the foundations of this disparity between theology and
its practice in worship. He inserts creative liturgical and
sacramental theology into the literary particularities of sacred
text, shared tradition, and communal hearing. From this a new lens
on the sacramentality of the Word emerges.
The dialogue begun by sacramental theologians Rahner, Semelroth,
and Schillebeeckx is re-opened by Janowiak. He examines the fruits
of the liturgical reform of the past forty years and parallel
movements in critical theory. The result is an understanding of
Christ's presence in the Word in a way that reveals the Mystery of
God at work in the gathering of believers.
Chapters in Part I are Worship and the Mystery of God's Action
in the Word" and "The Church as "Totus Christus" A Renewal of
Sacramentality and Proclamation." Chapters in Part II are "The
Dynamism of the Liturgy of the Word as a Sacramental Event:
Insights from New Historicism on the Text and Its Context,"
"Reader-Response Criticism and the Liturgical Assembly as
"Communitas Verbi,"" and "The Holy Preaching: A Sacramentality of
the Word as 'Fulfilled in Our Hearing.'"

The 2000 presidential race resulted in the highest-profile ballot
battle in over a century. But it is far from the only American
election determined by a handful of votes and marred by claims of
fraud. Since the founding of the nation, violence frequently
erupted as the votes were being counted, and more than a few
elections produced manifestly unfair results. Despite America's
claim to be the world's greatest democracy, its adherence to the
basic tenets of democratic elections-the ability to count ballots
accurately and fairly even when the stakes are high-has always been
shaky. A rigged gubernatorial election in New York in 1792 nearly
ended in calls for another revolution, and an 1899 gubernatorial
race even resulted in an assassination. Though acts of violence
have decreased in frequency over the past century, fairness and
accuracy in ballot counting nonetheless remains a basic problem in
American political life. In Ballot Battles, Edward Foley presents a
sweeping history of election controversies in the United States,
tracing how their evolution generated legal precedents that
ultimately transformed how we determine who wins and who loses.
While weaving a narrative spanning over two centuries, Foley
repeatedly returns to an originating event: because the Founding
Fathers despised parties and never envisioned the emergence of a
party system, they wrote a constitution that did not provide clear
solutions for high-stakes and highly-contested elections in which
two parties could pool resources against one another. Moreover, in
the American political system that actually developed, politicians
are beholden to the parties which they represent - and elected
officials have typically had an outsized say in determining the
outcomes of extremely close elections that involve recounts. This
underlying structural problem, more than anything else, explains
why intense ballot battles that leave one side feeling aggrieved
will continue to occur for the foreseeable future. American
democracy has improved dramatically over the last two centuries.
But the same cannot be said for the ways in which we determine who
wins the very close races. From the founding until today, there has
been little progress toward fixing the problem. Indeed, supporters
of John Jay in 1792 and opponents of Lyndon Johnson in the 1948
Texas Senate race would find it easy to commiserate with Al Gore
after the 2000 election. Ballot Battles is not only the first full
chronicle of contested elections in the US. It also provides a
powerful explanation of why the American election system has
been-and remains-so ineffective at deciding the tightest races in a
way that all sides will agree is fair.

"From age to age you gather a people toyourself, so that from

name."
Eucharist is the fullest expression of our life with God, alife
we share with Christians throughout the ages. It is also a sensory
experience, engaging us in the sights and sounds, tastes and touch
of the worship. Edward Foley's revised and expanded From Age to Age
draws readers into that sensory experience. He traces the
development of ChristianEucharist from its Jewish roots to our own
time. In addition to exploring the architecture, music, books, and
vessels that contributed to each period's liturgical expressions,
this edition introduces readers to the theology of each age as well
as the historical and cultural contexts that shaped the Eucharist.
Richly illustrated with numerous images and quotations from period
texts, this book is a feast for the mind and eye. Through many
examples of the visual and auditory symbols that are central to
Eucharist, readers will discover how Christian worship is embodied
worship that from age to age gives glory to God and sanctifies
people.
