Description

The Catholic Imagination by Andrew Greeley explores the unique religious sensibility that shapes Catholics' lives. This fascinating discussion reveals how the world is seen as a realm of revelation, where daily life is imbued with spiritual significance. Greeley examines the central themes of Catholic culture, including Sacrament, Salvation, Community, and more, drawing on high arts and international survey data to illustrate their enduring power in shaping Catholics' lived experience. By exploring these values and behaviors, Greeley challenges assumptions about who Catholics are today and makes a strong case for the vitality of the culture. The Catholic imagination is sustained through relationships, the home, and community, highlighting the importance of these connections in passing on and experiencing Catholic culture.
