Razing the Bastions: On the Church in This Age by Christoph Schönborn, Hans Urs von Balthasar

5.0

A relatively easy text to read, considering that my first reading provides the huge picture of what von Balthasar wants to show.

And basically, it is all about letting the Church go to where it is unfamiliar by first breaking down the walls that separate itself from the world, one that it justifies by a certain understanding of the orders of nature and grace. I believe that Christians of today ought to read this, in order to be reminded occasionally of who we are and what we ought to do as men and women in this world but not of this world.
