Denne lille bog handler om den skønneste og ældste af alle folkelige andagter, 'Vor Herre og Frelsers hellige Korsvej'. Den har rod i folkets hjerte. I trangen til livagtigt at forestille sig Frelsens hellige Mysterier og at kunne sige: ''således har det været, og her skete dette, her hint''. I hjerternes trang til at være med i det altsammen.Overleveringen knytter de vigtigste begivenheder under Herrens sidste vandring til bestemte steder. Ved disse steder holdt han sin 'statio', hvilket på det gamle kirkesprog vil sige: at gøre holdt i fromme tanker, i den hensigt at vise Gud sin dyrkelse - og han blev til mode, som var han selv med i den lille trofaste skare, der hin dag fulgte Herren og led sammen med ham.

2019 Reprint of 1956 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. The work attempts mainly to depict in general outline the character and the promise of a new man, Mass Man, and a new world, a world of technological collectivism, which the author sees as emerging with the simultaneous demise of the modern age. Mass Man, alienated particularly from the concepts of Nature, Personality and Culture which had dominated the modern age since the time of the Renaissance, is seen as dangerously poised between the possibility of total destruction and the possibility of the most naked type of spiritual commitment. This is a book which expressly disavows either a progressivist or a reactionary attitude and attempts simply to face what seem to be the facts about ""post-modern"" man and his world. Highly recommended to all serious students of western civilization.

Over fifty years ago, Msgr. Romano Guardini resolved to help his parishioners overcome the distractions and restlessness they suffered at Mass. Just before Mass each Sunday, he gave a brief talk on some aspect of the Mass, teaching them week by week, topic by topic, how to pre-pare themselves to participate more prayerfully. Afterward, he provided a few minutes of silence for reflection, and then began to offer Mass. So helpful were these 32 talks that they were soon published and have since been reprinted countless times in numerous countries and languages, helping generations of Catholics to deepen their devotion during Mass. Practical, straightforward, and full of wisdom, these talks will help you to quiet your soul, concentrate your mind, and grow receptive to God's grace during Mass. In these pages, you'll discover: - The three principal hindrances to full participation in the Mass to which all of us are prone - The real meaning of "keeping holy" the Sabbath. Its special importance for the family - One tendency we must overcome when listening to Scripture readings - How to gain control over your wandering attention - The one indispensable element of a deep liturgical life - What to do when the Mass becomes boring and "routine" - How to achieve a genuine not superficial stillness - The importance of listening. Inner barriers that prevent it - Why it's good to arrive early at Mass whenever possible - The true significance of kneeling and standing in church - And dozens of other practical ways to enrich your worship Although he was an eminent theologian, Msgr. Guardini wrote for ordinary Catholics who are struggling to become closer to Christ. Practical, straightforward, yet full of wisdom, Meditations Before Mass will help you to quiet your soul, concentrate your mind, and grow more receptive to grace.

f you already say the Rosary, this book will help you pray it with greater devotion. If you don't say the Rosary, you'll discover why you should-and how to begin. Unlike most Rosary books, The Rosary of Our Lady doesn't assume you already have a special love for Mary. Rather, it shows why such love is appropriate to all Christians who yearn to grow closer to Christ. In these pages, you'll learn how to pray the Rosary as it was meant to be prayed and to identify-and overcome-the bad habits that too easily develop in those of us who pray the Rosary often. Whether you've already spent many hours praying the Rosary or only want a simple, clear, and holy book to introduce the Rosary to a relative or friend, then this book is the book for you. You'll also learn: -How to take your daily concerns with you to the Rosary-and leave them there. -Who should-and shouldn't-pray the Rosary -What makes up the Rosary? The beads? The thoughts behind them? Or must there be something deeper? -The paradox of the Rosary: Why is the Rosary both easy and difficult? -How much of the Rosary should you be praying? -How to pray the Rosary . . . even in times of exhaustion and stress. -The one petition you must make if you're going to pray the Rosary well. -The "paramount truth" that is the key to linking the words of your prayers to the mystery you're contemplating. -Three practical hints for those who have difficulty with the Rosary.

This book collects a fascinating series of letters written by theologian-philosopher Romano Guardini in the mid-1920s in which he works out for the first time his sense of the challenges of humanity in a culture increasingly dominated by the machine. With prophetic clarity and unsettling farsightedness, Guardini's letters poignantly capture the personal implications and social challenges of living in the technological age - concerns that have now come to fruition seventy years after they were first raised.
