Splendour of the Church by Henri De Lubac

Considered by many the bright jewel among the many enriching books of Cardinal Henri de Lubac, this work is a hymn to the beauty of the Church, under some of whose leaders for a time he unjustly suffered. The Splendor of the Church is, in a sense, a personal testimony of the great theologian's humility and love of the Church of Christ. It is also a classic work in the theology of the Church. Indeed, de Lubac's profound insights significantly contributed to Vatican I's Dogmatic Constitution on the Church, Lumen Gentium, especially in its treatment on the Church as mystery and as the Sacrament of Christ.

Henri Cardinal de Lubac was a Jesuit priest, theologian, and Vatican II expert from France. Splendor of the Church, Catholicism, Motherhood of the Church, and The Drama of Atheist Humanism are only a few of his theological and spiritual works.
