The Spirit of CatholicismAuthor(s): Vivian Boland OP\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC, United Kingdom\nImprint: Bloomsbury Continuum\nISBN-13: 9781399414159, 978-1399414159\nSynopsis\nThe Catholic Church seems to be in serious crisis disfigured by scandals, divided by theological, cultural and political differences, retreating institutionally in many places, judged irrelevant by a culture that believes it has outgrown this kind of religious faith.\n\nYet the number of practising Catholics increases each year, a growing membership that seeks to be well grounded spiritually, intellectually and pastorally. Many younger people are curious to know and experience traditional and historical realities. Thus, the need for an informed and reflective restatement of The Spirit of Catholicism has never been more urgent.\n\nIn this clear and intelligible book, Vivian Boland presents the substance of Catholic belief and life, what the res catholica believes itself essential.
