Kwasniewski Peter (Over 1,200 results)

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Recent decades have been marred by pervasive Eucharistic abuses that encourage irreverence and facilitate sacrilege. The coronavirus crisis of 2020 has occasioned a further wave of sacramental desacralization and deprivation that has left almost no Catholic in the world unharmed. These disturbing "signs of the times" call for an unsparing reassessment of policies, practices, customs, and attitudes, along with fresh appreciation for "creative minorities" who are taking a different, more difficult, and more successful path to reverence. In The Holy Bread of Eternal Life, scholar Peter Kwasniewski draws from Scripture, the Fathers of the Church, St. Thomas Aquinas, and the Magisterium to explain the fitting veneration and handling of this "mystery of faith," the dispositions we need to cultivate for a fruitful reception of the Lord, and the blessings that follow from a life centered on Holy Communion. At the same time, he critiques many novelties in modern Catholic worship and shows why they must be set aside for the health of souls and of the Church. There is far more at stake in today's debates concerning Holy Communion than what preferences should be indulged or slipups tolerated. At stake is whether we truly believe that Jesus Christ is present in the Holy Bread of Eternal Life. Book jacket.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. An anthology of 70 essays and articles by prelates and pastors, theologians and canonists, philosophers and cultural figures-including: Cardinal Walter Brandm ller - Cardinal Raymond Leo Burke - Cardinal Gerhard M ller - Cardinal Robert Sarah - Cardinal Joseph Zen - Archbishop Thomas Gullickson - Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigan - Bishop Rob Mutsaerts - Bishop Athanasius Schneider - Msgr. Charles Pope - Dom Alcuin Reid - Abb Claude Barthe - Fr. John Hunwicke - Michael Brendan Dougherty - Ross Douthat - Edward Feser - Michael Fiedrowicz - Peter A. Kwasniewski - Phil Lawler - Martin Mosebach - George Neumayr - Joseph Shaw - and many othersAlready on July 16, 2021, the reactions to Pope Francis's severe restrictions on the traditional Latin Mass in Traditionis Custodes were like a river in full flood: articles, essays, interviews, podcasts-everywhere and from every point of view. An emotional, spiritual, intellectual dam had broken and the waters of discourse poured forth across the world. The sheer volume of writing occasioned by Traditionis Custodes is unlike anything seen in the history of papal documents-testimony to a neuralgic subject on which arguments proliferate and passions run high.The two-month period following the release of the motu proprio gave proof that the traditionalist movement was no fringe phenomenon, but something that had gained significant strength and sympathy during the relatively peaceful years from 2007 to 2021 (the Pax Benedictina to which the book's title refers). The purpose of this volume is to gather in one convenient place some of the finest and most appreciated essays and articles published in the period from mid-July through September of this fateful year, 2021-not only from America and England (although these predominate), but also from other nations: France, Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Argentina, Poland, Kazakhstan, and China.This book is not, and makes no pretense of being, a presentation of both sides of the argument. It offers a variety of critiques of this profoundly unwise and unpastoral decree, which suffers from incoherent doctrinal foundations, grave moral and juridical defects, and impossible ecclesiological implications. …

Hardback. Condition: Good. Turned Around: Replying to Common Objections Against the Traditional Latin Mass>is a practical and clear book that examines the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) through a fresh lens. In each chapter, Dr. Peter Kwasniewski addresses common objections to the TLM, transforming these challenges into gateways for a deeper understanding and appreciation of its timeless beauty. From the reasons we worship facing East, to the profound significance of praying in Latin, and the ritual separation of priest and people, Turned Around sheds light on why these liturgical elements resonate so deeply with the faithful. Various other topics will be explored within these pages, including: Why the Traditional Mass Is Kingly and Courtly> Why We Follow Inherited Rituals and Strict Rubrics> Why We Repeat Ourselves in Traditional Worship> Why We Use a One-Year Lectionary of Readings> Why it Is Better Not to Understand Everything Immediately> Why We Kneel for Communion and Receive on the Tongue>Turned Around provides the answers and intrigue to explore the paradoxical and countercultural elements of the TLM that have drawn the young and older faithful closer to the divine for centuries. This book is not just a defense of tradition; it is a journey to the heart of Catholic worship, promising to deepen the reader's spiritual life and understanding of the Mass. Whether you're a skeptic or a devout follower, Turned Around offers a compelling case for the enduring relevance and beauty of the Traditional Latin Mass.…
