Content: "Employing a multidisciplinary methodology using history, sociology, and theology, Gillis describes and analyzes the experiences of Catholics in America from the seventeenth century to the present. With quotations from ordinary believers, theologians, historians, bishops, and other authorities woven throughout the book, he deftly explores the interplay between worldwide Catholicism and its diverse national and local expressions. In particular, Gillis elucidates the persistent tension between Rome and the American church, which has been shaped by a thoroughly modern, dynamic, and secular culture." "Offering a wealth of information about church membership and ethnic and geographical makeup, the book explores how Catholic views on issues such as human life, abortion, poverty, and American culture have profoundly affected political and moral discourse in the United States. A chronology, glossary, profiles of prominent American Catholics, annotated bibliography, and a list of electronic resources are also included."--BOOK JACKET.

Content: Who are American Catholics and what do they believe and practice? How has American Catholicism influenced and been influenced by American culture and society? This book examines the history of American Catholics from the colonial era to the present, with an emphasis on changes and challenges in the contemporary church.Chester Gillis chronicles America Catholics: where they have come from, how they have integrated into American society, and how the church has influenced their lives. He highlights key events and people, examines data on Catholics and their relationship to the church, and considers the church’s positions and actions on politics, education, and gender and sexuality in the context of its history and doctrines.This second edition of Roman Catholicism in America pays particular attention to the tumultuous past twenty years and points toward the future of the religion in the United States. It examines the unprecedented crisis of sexual abuse by priests—the legal, moral, financial, and institutional repercussions of which continue to this day—and the bishops’ role in it. Gillis also discusses the election of Pope Francis and the controversial role Catholic leadership has played in American politics

Series Statement: Catholic Practice in North America

Content: Roman Catholicism in the United States: A Thematic History takes the reader beyond the traditional ways scholars have viewed and recounted the story of the Catholic Church in America. The collection covers unfamiliar topics such as anti-Catholicism, rural Catholicism, Latino Catholics, and issues related to the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Vatican and the U.S. government. The book continues with fascinating discussions on popular culture (film and literature), women religious, and the work of U.S. missionaries in other countries. The final section of the books is devoted to Catholic social teaching, tackling challenging and sometimes controversial subjects such as the relationship between African American Catholics and the Communist Party, Catholics in the civil rights movement, the abortion debate, issues of war and peace, and Vatican II and the American Catholic Church.Roman Catholicism in the United States examines the history of U.S. Catholicism from a variety of perspectives that transcend the familiar account of the immigrant, urban parish, which served as the focus for so many American Catholics during the nineteenth and first half of the twentieth centuries.

Content: "Theology without Borders, the title of this volume, evokes the seminal contributions of Peter Phan, a remarkably productive and creative scholar who challenges us to make global humanity the starting point for theological reflection. Over several decades, Phan has persuaded us that the collapse of established, bounded frameworks - especially that of a European Christianity with a monopoly on truth - is not to be feared but celebrated. His prodigious output has contributed to and enriched literatures in ecclesiology, Christology, missiology, patristics, and other fields. This volume brings together the contributions from a number of leading scholars and engages systematically with Phan's ideas across a range of vitally important topics, from global Christianity and migration to religious pluralism, the legacies of the Second Vatican Council, and eschatological controversies. Taken together, the essays provide an overview of Phan's scholarly contributions and a road map for better understanding theology without borders in our contemporary world"--

Note: On March 30 and 31, 2017, the late Gerard Mannion convened a symposium at Georgetown University to discuss "Theology without Borders: Celebrating the Legacy of Peter C. Phan." Scholars from across the globe gathered to explore a wide range of theological issues relating to Phan's contributions, especially his pioneering work on religious pluralism, migration, and Christian identity.-- Introduction. , Peter C.
