Extract
“Theology is Taught by God, Teaches of God and Leads to God.”
(Theologia a Deo docetur, Deum docet, et ad Deum ducit)
—Thomas AquinasIn 1972, I was twenty-two years old and had recently made my first vows with the Sisters of St. Francis. The sisters gave me a New American Bible; I had never before owned a Bible, and I promptly put it in my storage trunk for the move to my new mission to teach fifth grade in Minneapolis. Once I arrived, the Bible remained in the trunk.
