A Shepherd SpeaksIgnatius Press, 1997 - 421 pages The highly regarded, outspoken Bishop of Lincoln, Nebraska presents a series of profound reflections on the meaning of the Catholic faith in today's world and how to live in it. With an acute understanding of the practical realities of everyday life, Bishop Bruskewitz draws the reader into a deeper understanding of our Trinitarian faith, the nature and structure of the Church, the sacraments, Scripture, liturgical seasons, moral issues, prayer and the spiritual life, and much more. In doing so, he unlocks the treasures found in the saints and Fathers of the Church as well as the documents of Vatican II and the Catechism, all of which he uses extensively in exploring the Church's teaching on various subjects. |
