The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is built upon a spirituality that celebrates the all-embracing love of God surrounding human life. In this, the fifth volume of the Forum Essay series, Shawn Madigan questions whether our rites express this kind of spirituality. Madigan examines the different rites to see how each can guide spiritual direction before, during and after its celebration; how inclusive is its vision of the reign of God; and what model of Church is promoted. Includes brief annotations and a selected bibliography to encourage further study.

The Forum Essay series is a collaborative effort between LTP and The North American Forum on the Catechumenate. The purpose is to provide an opportunity for scholars to explore issues emerging from the implementation of the Order of Christian Initiation. Books in the series are excellent resources for the ongoing education of initiation teams and all parish ministers.
