This has its influence on those who believe in Christ as well as those who do not.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis new situation invites us to present our faith in Christ differently, calling us to offer a presentation of the Eucharist that can begin on common ground with our contemporaries and in language that believers today may find inviting and meaningful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a means of achieving this, the Frank O'Loughlin suggests that we look again at the basic things we use as signs in the Eucharist. These are things we have in common with other human beings: bread, wine, water, symbolic actions and our own bodies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese things are taken into our celebration of the Eucharist and are used as signs that take us beyond themselves into the depths of the Eucharist, that is into its very mystery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe author also points out the human grounding of those things indicated by words we use in speaking about the Eucharist: memory, presence and sacrifice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe are dealing with everyday, human things that take us beyond the ordinary from which they come, into the mystery of God among us in Christ which we celebrate when we gather for Eucharist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frank O'Loughlin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Coventry Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/05\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.18d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780648360124\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Coventry Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40083951419507,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":17.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_0d4185d5-3179-420e-8343-7a9e00d20c65.jpg?v=1652364398","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/new-wineskins-eucharist-in-todays-context-9780648360124","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
