Hardback. Zustand: Fair. Award-winning religion journalist David Gibson presents a startlingly clear-eyed look at the impact of the sexual abuse scandals on the Catholic Church and how they have set off a revolution from below that is galvanizing North America's rank-and-file Catholics to bring positive changes to their Church. The Catholic Church is at a crossroad. People on all sides are demanding change, but few are sure how that change can happen. Recent history suggests a powerful minority will block any reforms. In this sweeping assessment of where the Church has been, and where it is going, David Gibson uses his insider's knowledge and sources to reveal the forces that are already transforming Catholicism -- from the laity to the besieged priesthood to the papacy itself. Laypeople, especially women, are taking larger roles in Church life as the number of priests continues to decline. Priests are redefining their calling as scandals and shortages spark changes not seen in a thousand years, including new openings for married priests. Bishops, under fire from every quarter, are struggling to reimagine how the Church can be governed, while the College of Cardinals are waging an intense -- and increasingly public -- debate over how the next papacy will be different from the current one. The Catholic Church is always changing, but today the need for immediate reforms is more urgent than ever as Catholicism seeks to remain vital to American life and faithful to its authentic mission of following Jesus. In The Coming Catholic Church David Gibson examines the disputes that have polarized Catholicism and focuses on the new forces that are currently bringing Catholics together. From Church governance at the parish level and the selection of bishops to the way Catholics now view the rule of Rome, Gibson explains the transformations coming through both a revolution from below and an impending change at the top of the Church. This book is an expression of the heartfelt feelings and aspirations of all Catholics, from the people in the pew to the priests in the pulpit, as they struggle to renew their faith and their Church.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Beyond the headlines of crisis, an unprecedented transformation is reshaping the American Catholic Church from the pews to the pulpit. Rather than chronicling the well-reported sexual abuse scandal or advocating a particular reform agenda, David Gibson shows how the crisis in the church is unleashing forces that will change American Catholicism forever. Gibson looks beyond institutional dysfunction to examine how an energized laity demands financial transparency and administrative accountability. Parish councils and independent review boards increasingly challenge the traditional boundaries of clerical authority. Shrinking vocations and an aging priesthood exist alongside married convert pastors, a reality tracked here without partisan recriminations, as American dioceses find centralized governance strained by the democratic expectations of the modern faithful. United States Church History: Uncovers the forgotten legacy of nineteenth-century lay trusteeism, when Catholic laymen across New York and Charleston incorporated their own parishes and hired pastors long before episcopal monopolies took hold. Case Studies: Reconstructs critical flashpoints including the tense 2002 Dallas bishops conference, where Bishop Wilton Gregory delivered an unprecedented public confession of episcopal failure before hundreds of assembled prelates and reporters. Leadership Frameworks: Examines grassroots renewal initiatives such as Voice of the Faithful, founded in a Wellesley church basement to channel lay frustration into structured advocacy for systemic reform. Also by This Author: The Rule of Benedict.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. There was no neutral response to the announcement that the enforcer--Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger--had been elected Benedict XVI, the next pope of the Roman Catholic Church. Conservatives saw it as the final triumph of their agenda. Liberals were aghast. Everyone else wondered what to expect. Award-winning religion journalist David Gibson explores the war of ideas that will be a defining feature of this new papacy. Gibson persuasively argues that by tackling the modern world head-on Benedict XVI is gambling that he can make traditional, orthodox Catholicism the savior of contemporary society. But if the elderly Benedict fails in his battle with modernity, will Catholicism wind up as a smaller-but-purer church--the new kind of fortress Catholicism that some conservatives want? Such fears haunt millions of American Catholics pressing for change. Gibson points to the early warning signs of a papacy hyperfocused on right belief and shows how the key decisions of this surprising papacy will profoundly impact the future of Catholicism.…
