THE COURAGE TO BE CATHOLIC Crisis, Reform, and the Future of the Church by George Weigel

When scandals rocked the American Catholic Church, many observers and faithful alike called on the church to abandon its tenets on the vocation of the priesthood and sexuality outside marriage. Acclaimed theologian George Weigel saw the crisis differently: as a crisis of fidelity to the true essence of Catholicism. In this book, Weigel exposes the patterns of dissent and self-deception that became entrenched in seminaries, among priests, and ultimately among the bishops who failed their flock by thinking like managers instead of apostles. As Weigel reminds us, in the Biblical world "crisis" is also a time of great opportunity, an invitation to deeper faith. Paper.
