How can the Catholic Church be both hugely popular and widely scorned? How can it hold onto its ancient roots and be forever changing? This updated guide tells the story of being Catholic as Catholics themselves live their faith, every day of their lives. More than ever before, this edition speaks to interested outsiders, non-clergy and practising Catholics, as well as to religious professionals and members of the clergy.
This book explores:
The various stances within American Catholicism today
Recent Catholic history, most notably, the death of John Paul II and the succession of Pope Benedict XVI
The seven sacraments
The present state of Catholic education, Catholic identity and Catholic social teaching
Bob O'Gorman holds both a Master's degree and Ph.D. in religious education. He has published several books on U.S. Catholic history and education and teaches at the Institute of Pastoral Studies at Loyola. Mary Faulkner holds a Master's degree in religious education, is the director of the Institute of Integrated Healing Arts in Nashville and is a psychotherapist in private practice.
