Viac o knihe

This seminal work which surveys the historical rise and fall of religious orders and congregations reveals the fundamental dispositions that these institutions need to integrate into a new spirituality and sense of mission. These include:* Being faithful to the new Reign of God as a companionship of empowerment* Internalising a cyclic sense of the paschal mystery in history* Embracing God's creation as our primary eschatological space* Learning from the great Foundresses, including Mary Josephine Rogers* Reading the signs of the times of the 21st century
