Richard Rohr, O.F.M.
In language that Paul might use if he were preaching and writing today, Rohr
presents Paul?s all-embracing vision and invites us to enter into the mystery
of Christ and be transformed. Rohr breaks new ground by applying up-to-date
theories of our universe, integrating them with Paul?s revolutionary thinking
about sin, saints and spirituality.
Deep and complex, Paul may seem to be full of inconsistenciesarrogant
but also humble, a fervent believer but a probing, critical thinker, a mystic
but also a missionary community builder.
Rohr admits the difficulties in understanding
the short excerpts of Paul?s letters read at Sunday Mass. He analyzes the letters
and explains the great themes. He challenges our usual understandings and invites
us to imitate Paul and enter into the mystery in organic solidarity with the
Risen Christ. Rohr sees us as partaking in the incredible transformation of
the whole cosmos that struggles with the pattern of descent and ascent that
is revealed and affirmed in Jesus. Ten talks on ten cassettes.
