The Life and Kingdom of Jesus in Christian Souls
The Life and the Kingdom Of JESUS A TREATISE ON CHRISTIAN PERFECTION FOR USE BY CLERGY OR LAITY BY SAINT JOHN EUDES Translated from the French by A Trappist Father in The Abbey of Our Lady of Gethsémani With an Introduction by THE RIGHT REVEREND MONSIGNOR FULTON J. SHEEN 1947 NEW YORK P. J. KENEDY & SONS Numérisé par [email protected] GENERAL PREFACE ST. JOHN EUDES has been called "the wonder of his age." Missionary, founder, reformer of the clergy, he crowded into a life of seventy-nine years so many and such varied accomplishments that one marvels how a single man could achieve so much. In addition to the activities of an incessant and many-sided apostolate, he wrote a number of valuable books, which rank him among the most prolific ascetic writers of the seventeenth century. For many years the devotional works of St. John Eudes were practically unknown.(1) Occasionally a volume was discovered in the library of some seminary or religious house. Many others preserved in manuscript form were lost in the chaos of the French Revolution(2) At the beginning of the present century the sons of St. John Eudes united in a tribute of filial piety to bring out a complete edition of the works of their spiritual father, seeking them in public and private libraries throughout the world(3) About twenty volumes were found and edited in 1905 by the late Fathers Charles Lebrun, C.J.M., and Joseph Dauphin, (1).Before the French Revolution the works of St. John Eudes were popular in France. -
Dorotheus of Gaza and Benedict of Nursia* Nikolaus Egender
DOROTHEUS OF GAZA AND BENEDICT OF NURSIA* NIKOLAUS EGENDER At the founding of the Ecumenical Council of the Churches and its first General Assembly in Amsterdam in1948, the first General Secretary, Pastor W. Wissert Hooft, expressed the following basic principle: “The more we draw near to Christ as communities and believers, the more we draw near to one another.” During the last fifty years this principle of the ecumenical method has spoken to religious communities in their significant role of striving for the unity of Christians and for their spiritual renewal. In the sixth century a contemporary of Saint Benedict, Dorotheus of Gaza, held the same principle that he expressed by the comparison of a circle “that represented God as the center and the various ways of human life as the spokes. If the saints who desire to draw near to God move toward the center . they draw nearer to one another—one to the other—as they draw nearer to God. The more they approach God, the more they approach one another.”1 “The more one is united with the neighbor the more one is united with God.”2 These words are spoken in the context of brotherly love. But do they not affirm our experience today of the impact of the spiritual renewal on the way to the reunion of separated Christians? In an international Congress on the ecumenical Dimension of the Rule of Benedict (RB) a consideration of the Christian orient is essential. Accordingly, it seemed to me not without significance, to get to know better this contemporary of Saint Benedict, Dorotheus of Gaza. -
The Spirituality of Societies of Apostolic Life
The spirituality of societies of apostolic life Robert P. Maloney, C.M. Meeting of Members of Societies of Apostolic Life Ariccia, Italy November 23-25, 1997 All of us have noted, with some joy, the renewed interest in spirituality today. Some of its manifestations are wonderfully healthy. Others tend toward the bizarre.1 But one thing is clear. There exists a hunger, "a profound and authentic desire of 20th century humanity for wholeness in the midst of fragmentation, for community in the face of isolation and loneliness, for liberating transcendence, for meaning in life, for values that endure."2 Our members too yearn for wholeness, for meaning, for transcendence. The Lord calls us, as leaders in the Church, to try to satisfy their longing. We have many responsibilities as superiors general: decision-making, planning, meetings, personal interviews. But I suggest to you today, my brothers and sisters, that there is nothing more valuable that we can do for our congregations than to hold up before their eyes a captivating vision; an ultimate concern that will enable them to integrate life and give it away as a gift; a deep, vibrant, holistic spirituality. The topic you have asked me to address, "The Spirituality of Societies of Apostolic Life" is very difficult. It would surely be easier to speak about the spiritualities (in the plural) of Societies of Apostolic Life. But that would be an endless task since our heritages are really quite varied. For example, Bérulle, Vincent de Paul, and John Eudes, though contemporaries and collaborators, handed on to their congregations distinctive ways of approaching God. -
