About St. Bernard Of Clairvaux: On Consideration
Discover a practical theology of the pastorate rooted in the biblical concept of loveIn this classic work by beloved theologian Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, readers will find a strong emphasis on the necessity for pastors—whether they be popes or local ministers—to place prayer and love for God at the core of their ministry. To do so empowers their ability to serve since those two attributes cultivate the disposition through which God's love flows to others. Bernard originally composed this work for Pope Eugenius III—his friend and acolyte—and On Consideration remains a favorite of popes and other leaders even to this day. It was also influential beyond Roman Catholic circles and has found widespread praise among Protestants (esp John Calvin) and other non-Catholic teachers.Features:-Modern translation direct from Latin-Provides a general Historical Introduction and Introduction to each chapter-Contains more than 300 original translation, reference, and historical notes-Professionally formatted and designed using latest publishing technology
