History & Biography

“To mark the 40th Anniversary of the U.S. Black Bishops' historic challenge to the whole Church, this delightful book by Matt Daniels and Roxanne King first shows how other shepherds from Gregory the Great to Benedict XVI have used words to define five pillars of Catholic social thought, and then surrounds us with a multicolored flock, gathered from varied times and quarters, who define those same pillars with the flesh and blood of lives filled with love for all God's children.”
