A priest for nine years in the Catholic Church, Christopher Meade resigned
when he could no longer reconcile the humility and love that are central
to the Catholic faith with the secrecy and denial infecting the hierarchy.
The Catholic Church is one of the most durable and far-reaching institutions
in human history but in the aftermath of the worldwide sexual abuse scandal,
the Church's prestige and credibility---along with the faith of its followers---have
been put to the test.
In this collection of candid essays on iconic figures in Catholicism,
Meade explores his journey of faith, confronts the hypocrisy and turmoil
in the Church, and proposes solutions that will provoke informed dialogue,
greater openness, and intelligent reform. The essays examine two vital
faces of Catholic culture---dynamism and dysfunction. The Church continues
to stir the minds and hearts of people of faith. Icons & Iconoclasts
will reward you with remarkable insights on Catholic customs, culture
and history.
