The history of salvation revealed
From that eternal moment when He created time, through each prayer, confession, and consecration in the Church today, the Lord of the Universe has been working toward one principal goal: the salvation of our souls.
Indeed, so great is the dignity of mankind, and so relentless is God's love for us, that everything He makes and does leads us into eternal communion with Him.
In The Mystery and Destiny of the Church, Dominican Sister Rosena Marie explores the reality of God's loving intervention in creation, and illuminates His millennia-long plan for redeeming it: the plan that we have come to call "Salvation History." Beginning with mankind's appearance as the "crowning glory of creation" and subsequent estrangement from the Creator through the Fall, she shows how God has tirelessly prepared the way back to our original destiny.
