Description: The thought of Johann Adam Mohler has had a major impact on the development of Catholic theology in the twentieth century, providing a crucial source of inspiration for theologians such as Karl Rahner and Yves Congar. Symbolism is Mohler's magnum opus and crowning achievement, in which he works through and illuminates central issues in theological anthropology and ecclesiology within the context of a critical dialogue with Protestant theology.
Description: Here are seventeen steps to making God the real center of your life. No matter how faithful and dedicated to Christ you are, it’s all too easy to allow a gap to grow between your beliefs and your day-to-day actions: familiarity can blunt your fervor and even make you less vigilant against sin. That’s why you need Seventeen Steps to Heaven. This warm guide reveals what you must do in order to begin living your life on a supernatural level — with God truly at the center of everything you do.
With these seventeen steps, you can take measures today to prevent your love for God from being steadily diminished by day-to-day pressures. The author, the beloved Catholic writer Fr. Leo J. Trese, helps you through these steps to integrate into your actions the truths you profess. He gives you solid ways to look squarely at the reality and love of God and to root out contrary attachments in your life, showing you how to improve your confessions, pray more fervently, and let the thought of Heaven inspire you to be holy.
Fr. Trese doesn’t mince words: refreshingly unlike all too many modern writers, he speaks bluntly of Hell and of the devastating magnitude of sin. But don’t despair! He also discloses the remedies you can use to root out even the most entrenched sinful habits and attachments. Simple, profound, and insightful, Seventeen Steps to Heaven is an effective and long-lasting antidote to the spiritual dry rot that infects the soul of even the most careful Catholics.
