Thomas Joseph White, OP is associate professor of systematic theology, Dominican House of Studies and author of The Incarnate Lord (CUA Press)
In 1968 Joseph Ratzinger published his great Introduction to
Christianity. While rarely equaled, 50 years later it does have a
worthy popular successor. The Light of Christ combines scholarly
depth with an engaging style to present the what and why of
Catholic belief with exceptional clarity and grace. In walking the
reader persuasively through the faith that generations of
Christians have sought to witness, Fr. White has done a service not
just for the believing community but for any intelligent adult
seeking a path to God.""- Charles J. Chaput, OFM Cap., Archbishop
of Philadelphia;
""Thomas Joseph White is one of the brightest and most articulate
theologians writing today. This book is an intelligent and
spiritually alert introduction to the principal themes of Catholic
theology. Both beginners and serious academics will find much to
savor in its pages.""- Bishop Robert Barron, author of The Priority
of Christ: Toward a Postliberal Catholicism;
""One of America's leading young theologians offers a challenging,
bracing, and comprehensive introduction to the mind of the Catholic
Church—and doesn't neglect the Catholic heart in the process. The
perfect evangelical gift for the skeptical or inquisitive young
intellectual who wants to know what Catholics really think and
believe, and why.""- George Weigel, Distinguished Senior Fellow,
Ethics and Public Policy Center
