Robert Barro Bücher

Streitbar für den eigenen Glauben und die eigene Religion eintreten – mit zeitgemäßen Argumenten. In einer zunehmend säkularen Welt steht man schnell als Außenseiter oder gar Spinner da, wenn man mit anderen über Gott diskutiert. Vor den Mitarbeitern von Facebook und Google im Sillicon Valley stellt Robert Barron unter Beweis, dass sich auch im digitalen Zeitalter noch vernünftig über Religion, Gott und Glaube diskutieren lässt. Er gibt uns Argumente an die Hand, wie wir überlegt und konstruktiv für Gott streiten können und die Religion dadurch unseren Geist öffnen kann.

A master theologian and popular Catholic author offers inspiring insights into the mystery of Christ's presence in our lives. As festive as the film "Babette's Feast" and as profound as the work of Ronald Knox, this fresh look at the Eucharist brings to light the meanings of meal, sacrifice, and real presence in our lives.

In a time of discouragement, how can the Church renew itself and its outreach to all people? Bishop Robert Barron insists that a dumbed down Catholicism cannot succeed in today's highly educated society - instead, the Church needs to draw upon its great theological heritage in order to renew its hope in Christ.

Robert Barron is one of the Catholic Church's premier theologians and author of the influential The Priority of Christ. In this volume, Barron sets forth a thoroughgoing vision for an evangelical catholic theology that is steeped in the tradition and engaged with the contemporary world. Striking a balance between academic rigor and accessibility, the book covers issues of perennial interest in the twenty-first-century church: who God is, how to rightly worship him, and how his followers engage contemporary culture. Topics include the doctrine of God, Catholic theology, philosophy, liturgy, and evangelizing the culture. This work will be of special interest to readers concerned about the so-called "new atheism."

"“I want these talks to be evangelical. That means they are proclamations of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.” These words are from Fr. Robert Barron’s first Word on Fire broadcast for WGN in Chicago in 2000, which inaugurated over twenty years of regular sermon recordings from one of the leading preachers of the digital age. Today, his weekly Sunday Sermon podcast now reaches over a hundred thousand people every week, and Word on Fire has made Christocentrism the first principle and pillar of its growing movement. Proclaiming the Power of Christ: Classic Sermons is a collection of some of Bishop Robert Barron’s greatest homilies. Exploring both Old and New Testament texts, Bishop Barron brings his characteristic blend of erudition and relatability to a variety of subjects: the mystery of God, Jesus the Christ, life in the Spirit, holy men and women, liturgy and prayer, and faith and culture. From its humble beginnings in Chicago to its worldwide reach to millions today, Word on Fire emerged out of Bishop Barron’s masterful preaching. But that preaching―as these classic sermons demonstrate―emerged out of a mission: to proclaim Christ in the culture and to draw people into his Church."--

Bishop Robert Barron transcends liberal/conservative and Protestant/Catholic divides to explore the possibilities of postliberal theology for Catholicism.
