Abstract
SANCHEZ RUIZ WELCH, Andrea. The path toward new forms of living together in the Church family. Theol. Xave. [online]. 2013, vol.63, n.176, pp.509-537. ISSN 0120-3649.
Family tables have an underlying language which needs to be interpreted in order to conceive new forms of community within the Church. This work describes a number of family table models which are compared to what Jesus Christ used to do during meals and around tables as both a guest and or host. Finally, by recognizing the figure of family as a domestic church, under the light of both family tables and the experience of Jesus, this work makes a number of proposals to develop and live new (and not so new) ways of living within the Church.
