| Description: |
As states shut down public gatherings, including worship, parishes attempted to keep their congregants attached to the Eucharist by use of technology such as streaming video.
However, this practice has underlined some of the problems with liturgical practice as it has developed in the decades since Vatican II.
Rather than return to "business as usual" pre-COVID, Kevin Irwin says we should use this "break" as an opportunity to revisit the renewal and truly implement it. |

| Description: |
Theology of the People explores first the origins of Argentine liberation theology—its distinctive characteristics, stages, status, and the figure of its main initiator, Lucio Gera.
The book then presents the theology as a universal model of inculturation based on the wisdom and piety of the People of God incarnate in the peoples of the earth.
Finally, it demonstrates its decisive influence on Francis, who not only takes it to a more universal level, but it extends it with creativity. |

| Description: |
Schussler Fiorenza seeks to articulate and use biblical interpretation as intervention into the failure of the democratic cultural-political imagination.
Schussler Fiorenza's insights and arguments not only lead to the development of reimagined cultural biblical imprints of women in the political arena, but they also encourage her readers to add their own biblical examples to inspire them in their struggle for a biblical vision of "women in the public square".
"With this little book, so well-conceived, convincingly argued, and crisply written, we are yet again enlightened and provoked by Schussler Fiorenza. …" Vincent L. Wimbush, Institute for Signifying Scriptures |
