Riassunto:

This “quickbook” is titled “Magnifying Glass” because it’s an analysis of the text in Lk 2:40-52: authorship, source, context, structure, literary genre, historicity, and realism of the passage. It's the first quickbook in the Father's Adolescent Series. This theme is a challenge for the average reader. But it’s necessary. It provides a foundation for subsequent reflections. It answers these questions:•Are we sure Luke wrote these verses?•Where did he get this information from?•How did he structure this passage?•What was he trying to communicate?•Do we have other episodes from Jesus’ youth?•Why did he choose this passage over others?•Did this episode really happen? Is it historical?•How much do we really understand what actually happened?•…and more.

Informazioni sull'autore: I was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. When I was just six, my family immigrated to the United States. I'm the oldest of three boys. I grew up in Miami, FL, lived in France one year, and finished high school in Tulsa, OK. I enjoyed playing soccer and ice hockey for my high school. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Oklahoma. I got involved in university youth ministry. I discerned God’s calling to the priesthood throughout college. I visited a summer program for a congregation called the Legion of Christ in 2003. After finishing my last year of studies I entered the Legion of Christ seminary in Cheshire on September 2004. From 2004 to 2007 I completed two years of novitiate and a year of liberal arts studies. Then I completed my philosophy degree in 2009. On October 2009, I went to Dallas-Ft. Worth, TX, as a youth director. I worked to establish a network of youth clubs, retreats and summer camps known as “DFW Conquest”. I also attended a two-week intensive course on youth mentoring at the University of Francisco Vitoria in Madrid. I assisted the Legion of Christ youth ministry in Chicago as the director of a program for college students to dedicate a year to ministry within the Church. I went to Rome in 2013 to study theology for three years. I obtained my degree in Theology in 2016 from the Regina Apostolorum Pontifical University. During his studies, I placed a lot of emphasis on my Scripture studies. I was ordained a deacon on May 14, 2016. I was ordained a priest on December 10, 2016. At the time of publishing this quickbook, I was serving as the Legion of Christ adolescent youth ministry director in the Archdiocese of Cincinnati and director of Camp River Ridge, a Catholic campsite in Indiana.
