About this book

Jesuit Thomas Sweetser has worked for more than 35 years with Catholicfaith communities on evaluation and renewal. In 2011 he set out to interview a broad range of American Catholics, both practicing and non-practicing, about theirrelationship with the Church. Afew years into the new papacy, Fr. Sweetser asked the same people again. Had anything changed with Pope Francis?The answers are enlightening for the church's future.Based on before/after interviews, this helpful resource is for everyone concerned about the Church.The value of this book lies in the direct conversations with people from very different walks of life between 20 and 80 years old. They include faithful Catholics as well as people who have left the church. They touch on hot button questions such as hierarchy, women in the church, andsexual abuse, and offer insights into the nature of adeep desire for authentic spirituality.Together these conversations offer a pictureof the current state of the Catholic Church as experienced by its members.
