About this Book
The Trinity is the first of the mysteries of faith. Tragically, however, it
is also the mystery that speaks least to many believers. This is the issue
addressed in this volume. Hans Urs von Balthasar once observed that the greatest
tragedy in the history of theology was the separation of theology from spirituality....
Thomas Norris has in this work helped to heal that fatal separation. Here
one finds a theology and spirituality of communion.
"Professor Norris shows how the Christian spiritual way of communion
is well represented today especially by the remarkable Chiara Lubich, the
founder of the Focolare Movement, one of the great Catholic movements of spiritual
reform today. The anti-individualist spirituality of communion is, as this
work shows, central to Christianity and indeed to being an authentic human
being as such. Communion unites persons one to the other in a cause greater
than themselves.... It is difficult to conceive how any considerate person
will not be aided by this theologically thoughtful and spiritually moving
book."
David C. Tracy
Professor Emeritus University of Chicago Divinity School
Some Reviews:
"This book reflects the breadth and the depth of the author’s scholarship,
with copious references and quotations from the Fathers and theologians past
and present. It proved a delight to come across writing on spirituality that
is so rich theologically."
The Furrow
"There is a need for the primacy of the person as relation to displace
gradually the person as individual.... The writing gives life to a theology
of genuine social impact."
The Tablet
"The book is a gem and will undoubtedly provide food for thought and
spark off more studies into the idea of communion as a category for spirituality
and praxis at all levels."
