Publisher's Summary

Rekindle your Christic imagination.

Every true period of renewal in the Church has been marked by a rediscovery of the person of Jesus Christ. The Second Vatican Council inaugurated such a rediscovery. It asked Christians to “return to the sources” - especially the New Testament and those early theologian-bishops known as “the fathers of the Church” - as a way of envisioning anew their faith in Jesus.

A half-century later, Father Robert Imbelli (PhD, Yale University) pilots you through this mental safari into the unmapped regions of your imagination. An award-winning theologian at Boston College, Fr. Imbelli leads you back to the Source (with a capital “S”) - the clear waters of your faith - where your unclouded image of Jesus rests and, like a river rock, receives polish.

Fr. Imbelli’s studies in Rome overlapped with the Second Vatican Council; he brings his personal intersection with that historical episode of the Church’s lifetime to bear in this audio course by returning to the helpful distinction of the objective and subjective: “Transfigured Christ/Transfigured Christians” - the Church, and you.

The term “Christic,” as Fr. Imbelli uses it, is meant to call forth various dimensions of the Mystery of Jesus. In nine lectures, you will stretch your imagination, drag the lake of your own experience, and take His Mystery as “the Mystery of a Personal Presence” that is pervasive and life-giving, and finds its fullest sacramental reality in the Eucharist.

Be transfigured.
