Jack Milesauthor of Christ: A Crisis in the Life of GodThe sex scandals of the Catholic Church are not just about sex but about a scandalous abuse of authority. Will the scandal change the governance of the church? Some say that's anybody's guess. I say: Listen to Peter Steinfels. He's got a better guess than anybody., Monika HellwigPresident of the Association of Catholic Colleges and UniversitiesIf you want to know what is happening in the American Catholic Church, you must read this book. It is provocative. You may find yourself arguing with the author's diagnoses or his prescriptions for the future, but you will not be able to ignore him., Mario CuomoIn this important work, Peter Steinfels tells us the Catholic Church faces a crisis. With great lucidity, he tells us why and how the church must apply its theological underpinnings to current realities., Rev. Andrew Greeleyauthor of The Catholic ImaginationPeter Steinfels has written a judicious, sensitive, and perceptive book about the crises which beset American Catholicism, a people who are clearly adrift. The Catholic Church, he argues, is on the verge of either an irreversible decline or a thoroughgoing transformation. His evidence for this argument is persuasive and his argument is urgent., Kenneth L. Woodwardcontributing editor, NewsweekAt once a journalist and a historian, Peter Steinfels is uniquely qualified to diagnose the current crisis in American Catholicism, which goes well beyond clerical sex abuse. A People Adrift provides a way to recovery that should set the agenda for everyone concerned about the future of the church.

    A Concise and engaging title demanding to be reviewed.

    The Roman Catholic Church pointedly and deliberately performed an inventory of its life in the Second Vatican Council of the early 1960's. Most notably, of all the church's renewing characteristics, was an attitude of accountability and fraternity of all Catholics. This was to be "The Church in The Modern World", as it was named at the council. The remainder of the twentieth century would prove to be a tremendous test of that council's integrity and strength when the church immediately found itself being confronted by the very issues it sought to openly engage: The papal ban on birth control and the open dissent from that by Clergy, Theologians, and Catholics at large. The involvement of the Church in "liberation" and other radical theologies that insisted that governments of ...
