The modern age is marked by a singular preoccupation with the problem of evil and its attendant implications for the Gospel message. In The Meaning of Evil, Charles Journet conducts a robust theological study of the Christian tradition and its response to this perennial question. Carefully and competently restating and elaborating upon the tradition, Journet lays out clearly the problem of evil in its nature and its forms; considers the relation of evil to an omnipotent and loving God; distinguishes natural evils from moral evils; establishes freedom as the condition for both good and evil; and, in closing, reflects upon evil in human history, suffering as “trial,” and the authentically human attitude toward suffering. Standing among the best scholarly treatments of its topic, The Meaning of Evil is notable also for its merciful concern for concrete human sufferings, a concern which manifests the full import of Léon Bloy’s famous formula: “Man has places in his poor heart which do not yet exist, and into them enters suffering, that they may have existence.”

From Sacred Scripture to the Summa Theologiae, the silent wisdom of the via negativa has inspired what Charles Journet calls the “unknowing of love and the ignorance that is truly learned.” The Dark Knowledge of God conducts a concise overview of the apophatic tradition with a series of intriguing meditations on the divine nature. The primary benefit of the via negativa, per Journet, is its power to simplify our apprehension of God. In entering into the awesome mystery of God himself, we encounter all other mysteries in their true depth—the life, death, and resurrection of Christ our Lord; the role of Mary, his Mother; the founding of the Church; and the meaning and power of prayer and the sacraments.Moving nimbly from metaphysics to mysticism, Journet clarifies the key insight of the apophatic tradition—that we can neither speak nor stay silent about God—in such a way as to allow the dark mystery of God to shine as a light on the path of Truth.

Theology

St. Thomas Aquinas, always distinguishing, asserts that wisdom takes three forms: that of love, which comes from the Holy Spirit; that of faith, which emanates from revelation; and that of reason, which develops into metaphysics and measures the natural order. In The Wisdom of Faith: An Introduction to Theology, Charles Journet considers the second form of wisdom and conducts a study of sacra doctrina, the teachings of divine revelation. Following the Angelic Doctor, Journet traces the nature, purpose, and practice of the theological science from the necessary truths imparted to the human race by divine revelation. 
Covering such topics as the doctrine of analogy, the fides et ratio relationship, and the distinction between “doctrinal” and “historical” theology, The Wisdom of Faith is a sweeping treatment of the many facets of the queen of the sciences, and one able to provide a “theological sense that is at once sure, vivifying, [and] lucid.”
