In practically the only recent book in English to give a global picture of the theology of creation, Paul Haffner explores God's masterpiece, the spiritual and material cosmos, from the angels to man and woman centred in Christ. Paul Haffner provides an authoritative, detailed and systematic introduction to this fundamental subject in Christian theology. This is the first volume in a series that has now seen publication of The Sacramental Mystery, the Mystery of Reason and the Mystery of Mary. All these titles have become essential texts in Catholic seminary teaching, and the series is now being published in Italian translation by Vatican Press. Paul Haffner lectures in systematic and dogmatic theology at the Pontifical Gregorian University, the Pontifical Lateran University and the Pontifical Athenaeum Regina Apostolorum in Rome.

Focusing on ecclesiology, this book explores the fundamental aspects of the Church, beginning with its essential nature and institutional structure. It highlights the four key marks of the Church: unity, holiness, catholicity—particularly in relation to Eastern Christendom—and apostolicity, including the significance of the Petrine Office. Additionally, it examines the Church's role as an instrument of salvation, its interactions with the State and science, and ultimately its mission in guiding believers toward the Kingdom of God.
Exploring the intersection of reason and faith, this book delves into the classical proofs of God's existence, affirming their relevance today. It argues that human thought can meaningfully engage with God and enrich religious experience. By illustrating the rationality of Christian faith, it contends that belief without reason risks fundamentalism, while reason devoid of faith can lead to isolation. Ultimately, it advocates for a harmonious partnership between the mind and heart in the pursuit of understanding and connecting with the divine.
The book explores the profound connection between the external and internal deserts of the world, as articulated by Pope Benedict. It examines how the depletion of spiritual and moral values has led to the exploitation of the earth's resources, transforming them into tools for destruction rather than nurturing a harmonious existence. The text invites readers to reflect on the consequences of this shift and the urgent need for a return to values that promote stewardship and care for creation.
