April 4 - Mysticism, Monasticism, and the New Evangelization
Article: Roman Catholic Church And The Last Days
Comment from Understand The Times:
This article
clearly shows the connection of the Emerging Church with
the Roman Catholic New Evangelization Program to win the
world for the Roman Catholic Eucharistic Christ
"If God exists, He must
be felt. If He is Love, it must be experienced and
become the fact of one's inmost life. Without spiritual
enlightenment, all is an idle talk, like a bubble which
vanishes under the least pressure. Without the awakening
of the religious sense or faculty, God is a shadow, the
soul a ghost, and life a dream." - Soyen Shaku, Zen
For Americans "Put out into deep water, and lower
your nets for a catch." - Luke 5:4
While Catholics generally
respect the contemplative vocation, they may see it as
peripheral to supposedly more urgent concerns, such as
improving catechesis and the liturgy, or bearing witness
to faith and morality in public life. Those concerns are
critical. But we
believe the New Evangelization of historically Christian
countries also requires a rediscovery of Christian
mysticism, and a revival of the monastic setting which
is its natural home.

being touted as the first convergence of HD, 3D and 4K
technologies for such a high-profile multimedia 3D
event.
A new poll finds

of men rather than the word of God.
Come grilling season,
expect your sirloin
steak to come with a hearty side of sticker shock. Beef
prices have reached all-time highs in the U.S. and
aren't expected to come down any time soon.
