Beschreibung
Partners develop and change during their shared path through life. Some things abide, while others are subject
to change. Precisely because not everything remains as it was at the beginning, changes can also be understood
as creative possibilities for common growth. This book seeks to show how married couples are challenged to give
each other support, and also to help each other in this process of growth.
In this Album amicorum, three thematic areas are taken up. These constitute the basis of five decades
of shared life, and the wisdom of marital love finds expression in them: theology and spirituality, questions
about bioethics, and the Jewish-Christian dialogue.
Aldegonde Brenninkmeijer-Werhahn is the founder and director of the International Academy for Marital
Spirituality (INTAMS), founded in 1989 in Brussels. Together with her husband, Hubert Brenninkmeijer, she
also founded the Centre for the Study of Christianity at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (2000), and
the Cardinal Bea Center for Judaic Studies at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome (2001).
