Paperback. Condición: Very Good. The Catholic Church in the United States has reached a tipping point. The crisis is painfully visible in the sharp declines that have already taken place in many essential areas of Church life, from Catholic marriages and infant baptisms to Sunday Mass attendance and the number of priests. Meanwhile, the number of semi-active and inactive Catholics is rising, and the number of ex-Catholic "nones" is skyrocketing. What happens in the immediate future will determine how the Church in America will emerge from this crisis: a smaller but more committed body of faithful Christians or a stagnant, inward looking remnant. The American Catholic laity must decide whether they will be passive onlookers or will choose to act. Revitalizing Catholicism in America provides nine practical actions every faithful Catholic can take - nine steps which, all together, will form the building blocks of a renewed Catholic subculture. No matter what your specific gift or walk of life, you have a role to play in revitalizing Catholicism in America. This book will show you how.…
