Reading Mark for the First Time
Wilfrid J. Harrington explores his favorite gospel, the Gospel of Mark, with emphasis on why Mark tells the story the way he does. Harrington backs up his appreciation of the literary sophistication by outlining Mark’s technique. He demonstrates Mark’s storytelling and writing ability, and discusses the centrality of the cross to Mark’s account of Jesus. Mark’s theology is a theology of the cross, and his Jesus is the most human out of all the gospels. Harrington admires Mark’s realism, and confirms his conviction that the cross is indeed the heart of Christianity.

In two-and-a-half centuries, the Church Fathers converted the pagan world without resources, or social or political power. Even with the most primitive communications media, the message of Jesus Christ increased the size of the Church by 40 percent per decade over the course of those centuries. In Faith of Our Fathers: Why the Early Christians Still Matter and Always Will, Mike Aquilina argues that hundreds of years later, we still have a lot to learn from these Church Fathers.

Word and Icon
Christ is God’s “Word and Icon.” God not only authors his definitive word by his Holy Spirit, he also fashions his image in the flesh of Jesus of Nazareth. Indeed, Jesus as his father’s “eikon” is the visible image of the invisible God (Col. 1:15). For two millennia iconographers have tried to depict the uncreated, divine essence and energy of Christ—his living light, which permeates the cosmos, shining upon creation.

St. Jerome-Origen: Commentary on Isaiah, Origen Homilies 1–9 on Isaiah
Saint Jerome is best known as the translator of the Latin Vulgate Bible. In medieval times, Jerome was declared to be one of the four great Doctors of the Latin Church.
