Ebook: Evangelical Catholicism: deep reform in the 21st-century church

Prologue: An invitation to Evangelical Catholicism and deep Catholic reform -- The vision of Evangelical Catholicism -- The reforms of Evangelical Catholicism -- Epilogue: Holiness and mission.;The Catholic Church is entering a new era. The curtain is coming down on the Church defined by the 16th century Counter-Reformation and a new way of being Catholic is taking the stage: Evangelical Catholicism, which confronts the confusions of postmodern culture with the truth and mercy found in friendship with Jesus Christ. George Weigel shows how Catholicism, building on more than a century of deep reform, will live out the promise of the Second Vatican Council by returning to its missionary roots, as Catholics rediscover the evangelical vocation of their baptism and the institutional Church is rebuilt for greater mission effectiveness. in the spirit of Pope Francis, Evangelical Catholicism calls clergy and laity alike to embody the Gospel compassion and conviction, offering healing to a deeply wounded world.
