Summary: | Apostolic Religious Life in America Today: A Response to the Crisis, edited by Richard Gribble, C.SC., and Prophets in Their Own Country: Women Religious Bearing Witness to the Gospel in a Troubled World, by Sandra M. Schneiders, I.H.M., offer two different perspectives on contemporary religious life. The editors of American Catholic Studies decided it would benefit readers if we invited four distinguished scholars to review both books. We were pleased that two of our reviewers are women religious; one is a priest in a religious community, and our fourth reviewer is a Christian Brother. Recent actions by church authorities in both Rome and the United States have only increased the relevance of these reviews for our readers. |
