All Things New

Theology

“A model of creative theological retrieval, All Things New makes a compelling case for understanding human identity and vocation as profoundly Trinitarian and christological. It presents a beautifully contemplative vision of the human person, arguing that it is the quality and depth of our attention to divine mystery that enables us to understand who we are and how we should live. An original and important work.”

Jesus for Farmers and Fishers

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“A bold, courageous, and utterly original rereading of Jesus's parables that draws us deep into questions of what it means to stand with those struggling with food insecurity, erosion of cultural identity, and spiritual loss. This gifted ethnobotanist, with his eyes wide open, helps us feel anew the pathos and power of Jesus's teachings about food and life and reimagine the world as sacramental.”

Mysticism and Witness in Koinonia

History & Biography

“Mysticism is sometimes conceived of as being esoteric and removed from everyday experience. In this beautiful and moving theological reflection on two twentieth-century communities of martyrs, Maria Clara Bingemer reveals the vital mysticism of solidarity and accompaniment that was at the heart of their lives and their witness; one that continues to speak to us in our own time. An important and necessary work.”
