For those curious about the inner spiritual lives of more than three dozen celebrities, artists, thinkers, and clergy…those fascinated by the Kennedy family’s relationship with Catholicism…the thousands who admire Kerry Kennedy’s faith-based human rights activism and have read (or viewed on stage) Speak Truth to Power…and especially, the millions of American Catholics looking for corroboration that they’re not alone in their frustration, worry and hope for the Church.
Some of America’s most extraordinary celebrities, artists, and thinkers reveal what they believe Catholicism is-and what it should be
In this illuminating collection that redefines an ancient institution in the most contemporary of terms, human-rights activist Kerry Kennedy asks thirty-seven American Catholics to speak candidly about their own faith-whether lost, recovered, or deepened-and about their feelings regarding the way the Church hierarchy is moving forward.
“Has something to say to almost every Catholic, or even one-time Catholic, who cracks open its pages. . . . One finishes the book feeling grateful for Kennedy’s subjects’ honesty and moved in a hundred different ways by what they reveal of their aspirations and struggles.”-National Catholic Reporter
“Revealing . . . offers an unusually intimate view of how much being raised Catholic shapes the identity of many prominent Americans, but also how much tension many feel with the institutional church.”-Boston Globe
