Theology

	Theology for Today's Catholic A Handbook All Christians are called to be theologians. We recognize within ourselves an innate hunger coming from God's call to holiness that beckons us constantly to become something more, something greater than what we are at any given moment. Readers will be given tools that aid in intentionally living the Christian mystery each day while contributing to the kingdom of God on earth. 96 pages, S$8.50
	Theology of the Body for Beginners by Christopher West What is the "Theology of the Body"? According to Pope John Paul II, if we live according to the true meaning of our sexuality, we "fulfill the very meaning of [our] being and existence." The human body is a "theology" because it is meant to be a sign of God’s own life and love in the world. With clarity and precision, Christopher West unpacks John Paul II’s Theology of the Body, translating it into a language everyone can understand. 150 pages S$19.50
	Nature and Mission of Theology - Pope Benedict XVI As Cardinal, Joseph Ratzinger wrote this book in response to the dialogue going on today concerning theology and the clarification of its methods, its mission and its limits which he thinks has become urgent. Ratzinger states: "To do theology-as the Magisterium understands theology-it is not sufficient merely to calculate how much religion can reasonably be expected of man and to utilize bits and pieces of the Christian tradition accordingly. Theology is born when the arbitrary judgment of reason encounters a limit, in that we discover something which we have not excogitated ourselves but which has been revealed to us. For this reason, not every religious theory has the right to label itself as Christian or Catholic theology simply because it wishes to do so; whoever would lay claim to this title is obligated to accept as meaningful the prior given which goes along with it."
