My newest book has just arrived. Yes! It was a long time in coming but it’s finally here. It is available here, soon at Amazon Books and Barnes & Noble.
The book explores this topic: Are we more Roman than Catholic?
As Roman Catholics, have we over-emphasized values from ancient Roman culture that clash with what it means to be truly Catholic? Have power and privilege for a few and external authority without accountability trumped cooperation, shared leadership and discernment by the whole community? What does this mean for our Catholicity? For the future of the Church?
We have seen a Catholicism that fosters an ongoing reliance on external authority. This is problematic and dangerous. True Roman Catholicism must foster within each person a reliance on internal authority and integrity to one’s own values within a community. A vision of the Church without this is no vision at all.
If you are an interested Catholic or just want to know more – order a copy.
