The Benedict Proposal

Theology

“Over half a century after the close of the Second Vatican Council, controversy remains over how the church is to engage with the world. By broadly and deeply engaging the theology of Joseph Ratzinger, Brumfield persuasively shows that the response called for today is the formation of ‘creative minorities’ who withdraw from the world in order to be more perfectly devoted to God, for the sake of the world. An important contribution to the theology of new ecclesial movements.”
