God-Talk: The Heart of Judaism Reading Course

Gavin House 1220 E 58th St., Chicago, IL
Rev. Andrew Summerson, University of St. Michael’s College

David Novak, one of the most distinguished Jewish theologians in the world, offers a new interpretation of how the Jewish people and the Jewish tradition talk about God. What does the Torah say about God? How does the God of the Torah talk about Godself? And how does the God of the Torah talk about human beings? The book traces the history and theology of God-talk in Judaism, and how it remains relevant, now more than ever, and speaks directly to contemporary issues such as human rights.

The Tragic Sense of Life in Men and Nations

Gavin House 1220 E 58th St., Chicago, IL

"Wherefore my destiny? Why do I possess such a thirst for eternity?" For Spanish existentialist philosopher, Miguel de Unamuno, awareness of these two fundamentally human questions is to possess a "tragic sense of life." By understanding it, we find the answers to our lives, navigating the conflict between faith and reason, our longing for immortality, and the interplay of faith, hope, and love in the tragicomic nature of life itself.

Event Series Latin Vulgate Reading Group

Latin Vulgate Reading Group

Gavin House 1220 E 58th St., Chicago, IL

St. Jerome's Latin translation of the Bible was used exclusively by the Western Church for centuries; its significance for the Roman Catholic tradition cannot be overstated. In this group, we will work through sections of the Vulgate in order to appreciate its beauty and practice our Latin. For the first session, no preparation is necessary; we will decide together which texts we will read. Please come with a desire to grow in Latin Bible knowledge with St. Jerome and friends!
