Description - Evangelization for the Third Millennium by Avery Cardinal Dulles
Evangelization for the Third Millennium is a collection of ten essays based on lectures given by Avery Cardinal Dulles, SJ, over the past decade. Targeting today’s critical issues in the field, the essays include “Evangelization: New Testament through Vatican II,” “Paul VI, John Paul II, and the New Evangelization,” “Evangelization and Ecumenism,” “The Evangelization of Culture and the Catholic University,” and many others. As in his earlier groundbreaking books, Models of the Church and Models of Revelation, this work uses models as a basis for theological reflection to explore the continuity and development of thought of current trends in evangelization, catechesis, and apologetics.
“Cardinal Dulles maintained that Pope Paul VI’s 1975 apostolic exhortation on evangelization, Evangelii nuntiandi, was one of his greatest and most important contributions to the life of the Church in our time. It was his hope that the present book would play a role in revitalizing this subject, and for this reason he devoted the last days of his life to working on it.”
