For too long the subject of religion has been politicized by the
Right and largely ignored by the Left, as American churches have
become increasingly more concerned with what people do with their
bodies than with their souls. Now Kathleen Kennedy Townsend issues
a spiritual call to arms to all those who feel that churches in
America today--Catholic and Protestant alike--are
FAILING AMERICA'S FAITHFUL
Kennedy Townsend recalls what it was like to grow up as a member
of a prominent Catholic family at a time when both America and the
Church were undergoing a revolutionary transformation. She shows
how today's churches, allied with the political right, have created
a new social agenda and have become obsessed with fighting
legislative battles about personal and private issues, while the
neediest of our country are forgotten. But opposition to this
distortion of Christian traditions has been growing. Powerful and
provocative, this book demonstrates how Americans can reclaim their
religious traditions and transform their churches, their lives, and
this very nation.
"Kathleen Kennedy Townsend is a woman of passion, integrity, and
faith. Her Christian witness requires her to remember and act on
Jesus' repeated instructions to love our neighbors, care for the
poor, and repair the breaches among us. She makes a compelling case
for those who share her faith to do the same." --President William
Jefferson Clinton
