Faith
Comes from What Is Heard: An Introduction to Fundamental Theology
informs both the heart and mind as it brings together dogmatic
and biblical theology, the Thomistic tradition, the teachings of the
Fathers of the Church, and the contemporary Magisterium. Drawing
heavily upon the works of St. Thomas Aquinas, Bl. John Henry Newman,
Joseph Ratzinger, and St. John Paul II, the author examines the
foundations of Catholic theology, or Fundamental Theology, "which
is theology s reflection on itself as a discipline, its method, and
its foundation in God's Revelation transmitted to us through
Scripture and Tradition."
Although
Faith Comes from What Is Heard is useful for all Catholics who
want to understand the foundations of their faith, it is specifically
designed to serve as a textbook for courses in Fundamental Theology
in seminaries and in graduate and undergraduate programs in theology.
It can also serve as a textbook for introductory theology and
Scripture courses. The topics covered in Faith Comes from What Is
Heard include:
- Revelation
and Faith
- Theology
- Tradition
and the Magisterium
- Biblical
Hermeneutics
- the
Historicity of the Gospels
- and
Biblical Typology
