1. The Mysteries Of Christianity
A Dogmatic Treatise
An integrated exposition of Catholic dogma that presents the great mysteries of faith not as contradictions but as invitations into God’s self-giving life. Centered on the Trinity and the Incarnation, it shows how doctrines about grace, deification, the sacraments, the Church, and Mary form an organic whole animated by divine love. Drawing on Scripture, the Fathers, and scholastic theology, it uses analogical reasoning to reveal a harmony between faith and reason and to illumine the believer’s participation in the supernatural order. The result is a contemplative theology that aims to move the mind to wonder and the heart to worship.
