THE HUMILITY OF GODA Franciscan Perspective...by Ilia Delio, O.S.F.
"Here is the first extensive treatment of Franciscan theology of divine humility. Through the lens of Saint Bonaventure's theology, Ilia Delio searches for God today "in a fast-paced, scientific world that in many ways views God as an unnecessary hypothesis." Using Bonaventure's Christ-centered mysticism, Ilia Delio illustrates God's humility and his relationship to the world, while at the same time tackling today's tough questions." Paper, 256 pages, Saint Anthony Messenger Press, The Franciscan Library. (Order B16675 Price $13.95)
INSTRUMENTS OF CHRISTREFLECTIONS ON THE PEACE PRAYER OF SAINT FRANCIS OF ASSISI...by Fr. Albert Haase, O.F.M.
"What is it about this prayer that casts such a magical spell upon us? Why do princess and pauper, bishop and bellhop, saint and sinner turn to it in emotionally charged moments of life? ...The book consists of twelve chapters, each reflecting upon a phrase of the prayer. ..Each chapter, with the exception of the final one, concludes with four reflection and discussion questions. ...I wrote INSTRUMENTS OF CHRIST: REFLECTIONS ON THE PEACE PRAYER OF SAINT FRANCIS OF ASSISI for ordinary Christians like myself, who pray the Peace Prayer but do not always have the time to reflect upon its challenges and implications." Excerpts from the the Introduction. The "reflection and discussion questions" presented in this wonderful little book make it ideal for personal use or a possible "On Going Formation" program within a small group or Fraternity. Published by St. Anthony Press, paperback, 81 pages. (Order B572-3 Price$7.95)
