Renowned Catholic educator Thomas Groome has discovered that whether devout or alienated, reformist or traditionalist, Catholics share eight distinctive qualities. With ecumenical sensitivity and a voice refreshingly free of condescension, "What Makes Us Catholic" draws upon the core convictions of contemporary Catholic Christianity and its rich tradition to weave a way of believing that has universal appeal, offering a fresh horizon that nurtures spirituality for all.
What makes a Catholic a Catholic? According to Thomas Groome, an expert on the essential ingredients of Catholic Christianity, Catholics share certain vital features of life and identity. "What Makes Us Catholic" explains and illuminates that character, and invites Catholics of all kinds to connect more deeply and imaginatively with their own culture and spirituality.
