A Catholic Vision of Communion and Deification viewing the Trinity as the Goal, Source, and Archetype of all things Christian and human. An exercise in Ressourcement theology, this book draws on the vision of Henri de Lubac, Hans Urs von Balthasar, and Pope Benedict XVI, as well as the personalism of Pope John Paul II. It focuses on the Divine Personhood of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as the Wellspring of Worship and the contemplative guide for human relationships. Human personhood in its fallen and divinized forms is explored in light of patristic teaching on the Trinitarian Communion.

Inspired by the ressourcement theology of Henri de Lubac, Hans Urs von Balthasar, and Pope Benedict XVI, LIFE IN THE TRINITY is a modest attempt to advance a neo-patristic synthesis crucial to the renewal of the Catholic Faith in our times. Drawing on the early Church Fathers, as well as the personalism of Pope John Paul II, LIFE IN THE TRINITY presents Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as the source, goal, and archetype of human love, and the wellspring of liturgical worship. It furnishes us with a Catholic vision of communion and deification, inspiring hope for the 21st century.

Before the Foundation of the World: Encountering the Trinity in Ephesians 1

DEIFIED VISION: TOWARDS AN ANAGOGICAL CATHOLICISM is an attempt at activating an "anagogical imagination." It requires of us that we pray for a share in God's own contemplation of the world; that we allow our imaginations to get "lifted up" into His own; that we desire to receive, through the illumination of His Holy Spirit, a participation in His own love and desire for all He has created. One author has called this process 'acquiring an "epistemic participation" in the Mind of Christ.'

Deified Vision: Towards an Anagogical Catholicism

MORE THAN CONQUERERS is a contemplative meditation on the 8th chapter of St. Paul's Letter to the Romans. Modeled on the lectio divina style of Adrienne von Speyr and Erasmo Leiva-Merikakas, this book explores the mystical depths of St. Paul's most famous letter, inviting us to reflect on the deifying power of 'life in Christ.' St. Paul was the first and perhaps greatest Christian mystic. The complexities of his letters to the Romans bear witness to the unfathomable riches of the Mystery of Christ. These reflections seek to bring us into the heart of Pauline mysticism.

Informed by Scripture and the church fathers, and inspired by the ressourcement theology of Henri de Lubac, Hans Urs von Balthasar, and Pope Benedict XVI, this book advances new insight and practical application of the recent retrieval of Trinitarian theology and its vision of human transformation known as deification. Father Philip Krill contributes to a growing retrieval of Trinitarian Christianity and a synthesis of the Western and Eastern theological traditions. A final section on theosis, or deification, rounds out this exploration of God's full intentions for the redemption of humanity.

'At the Center of our being is a point of pure truth, ' wrote Thomas Merton, ' a point or spark which belongs entirely to God...This little point of nothingness and of absolute poverty is the pure glory of God in us.' Merton called this Center Point, Le Point Vierge the Virginal Point. Here, we and God are untied in a Mystery of inexpressible Presence.LE POINT VIERGE: Meditations on the Mystery of Presence is a year of daily meditations exploring the Mystery of Presence as we experience It in the Virginal Point in our hearts. Practicing Presence is a sure and certain way to make fresh contact with God. God is not an Object of our understanding but a Mystery of Presence encountered in the Virginal Point of our hearts. It is hoped that by reading LE POINT VIERGE, the reader will discover the truth of St. Augustine's words: 'You, O God, were more inward to me than my most inward parts and higher than my highest' (Confessions 3.6.11).

Gelassenheit is a German word with many meanings: relinquishment, surrender, abandonment, submission, detachment, letting go, allowing, acquiescence, etc. Meister Eckhart's favorite term for Gelassenheit is releasement. Eckhart, like mystics of every age, experienced God as a Mystery of Releasement. Gelassenheit involves the whole trinitarian Life. The father 'lets go of' Himself to be begotten in an intra-trinitarian act of Gelassenheit, and together, Father and Son 'release' the Holy Spirit, for the salvation of the world. These meditations on Gelassenheit are offered to help us experience God as a Mystery of Divine Releasement. And since the spiritual life is also a progressive growth in interior Gelassenheit, the author also hopes that this book will inspire a trinitarian vision of deification and contemplative prayer. Meister Eckhart (1260?1328) was a German theologian, philosopher, and mystic. A Dominican priest, his writings, comprised mostly of sermons, were considered heretical during his lifetime but are now considered the mystical gold standard of the Middle Ages.
