The Changing Paradigms
₹110
Description
Religious Life has changed dramatically in the past 40 years and is likely to change even more radically over the next 40. What social scientists call a major paradigm shift is precisely what we are undergoing in Religious Life today.
This book evaluates afresh the time-honored traditions of the vowed life that seem to have served their time. It also names and describes the new horizons of meaning and hope we are now invited to embrace. And perhaps, most helpful of all, it describes the transition from the old to the new, offering insights that help to make sense of the turbulent and challenging times in which we live.
