Sex, Love, and Families Zusammenfassung

Sex, Love, and Families: Catholic Perspectives Jason King

Six years into the papacy of Pope Francis, Catholics are still figuring out how to respond to his image of the church as a field hospital -a church that goes into the streets rather than remaining locked up behind closed doors. Marriage and family are primary sites of the field hospital, called to meet people's need for healing and accompaniment with compassion and love. The authors of this collection -all lay, a mix of single and married, traditional and progressive Catholics -take up this work. They offer practical wisdom from and critical engagement with the Catholic tradition but avoid rehashing decades-old theological debates. Instead, their essays engage with and respond to realities shaping contemporary family life, like religious pluralism, technology, migration, racism, sex and gender, incarceration, consumerism, and the call to holiness. The result is a collection that envisions ways that families can be places of healing and love in and for the world.

Sex, Love, and Families Bewertungen

"Sex, marriage, and family mores are changing radically. Whether you are celebrating or alarmed, you can learn from the realistic, hopeful, and impactful voices gathered here. They seek the light of faith in LGBTQI identity, campus hook-ups, heartbreaking pregnancy loss, identity-challenging infertility, undocumented siblings, incarcerated parents, interchurch families, `secular Catholic' families, twenty-first century parenting, marital love as abiding friendship, discipleship through divorce, and more. Sex, Love, and Families would make an excellent course text; no student would skip the readings and the discussions would run themselves."
Lisa Sowle Cahill, Monan Professor of Theology, Boston College
"I cannot think of any duo more competent or attractive for hosting a Catholic discourse on Sex, Love, and Family than Jason King and Julie Rubio. Today, in the United States, millions agree to disagree about what constitutes good sex, good love, and good family, but that agreement is usually followed by a silence because few are willing to hear the differences. Well, those days are over because our editors did not shy away from truly challenging contributors. Pick up his book and discover that you are probably not as conservative (or as progressive) as you thought. These are powerful, thoughtful, and honest pieces and their claims ought to finally end the timid silence that has been way too seductive and self-serving."
James F. Keenan, SJ, Canisius Professor of Theology, Boston College
