New Resource – Lectio Publishing

Lectio Publishing logoIn keeping with the aggiornamento spirit of this blog, I’m happy to announce to this blog’s readers that this past year we have started Lectio Publishing a new publishing venture for religious – Catholic – authors and topics.

This month we published a book titled Sacramental Theology – 50 Years After Vatican II, which has been published as both a softcover and eBook. The book honors the 50th Anniversary of the Second Vatican Council (1962-65) and traces the major issues promulgated at Vatican II as they relate to both the meaning and celebration of the sacraments today.

Osborne, O.F.M., a scholar of international repute and is Professor Emeritus of Systematic Theology at the Franciscan School of Theology/Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley, CA where he taught for over 30 years. He is a frequent guest lecturer at numerous colleges and universities throughout the U.S. and the world, mostly recently in China and Korea. He is considered an expert in Christology, the sacraments, the permanent diaconate, post-Vatican II theology, and contemporary and Chinese philosophy.

Information, and a downloadable excerpt, can be accessed on the Lectio Publishing website.
