Shepherding Peace - by George Lucey (Paperback)

About the Book

Shepherding Peace by Bishop George Lucey explores Catholic Social Teaching and the Church's call to justice, dignity, and peace, inviting readers to live their faith through compassion and social responsibility.

Book Synopsis

Shepherding Peace presents a Catholic pastoral vision of justice, dignity, and communion grounded in the Gospel and the Church's social tradition. Drawing on pastoral letters written within the American National Catholic Church, Bishop George Lucey reflects on Catholic Social Teaching as a living expression of the Church's mission in the world, shaped by Scripture, tradition, and the reforms of the Second Vatican Council.

Addressing themes of peace, conscience, human dignity, and social responsibility, these reflections speak from a distinctly Catholic perspective while inviting dialogue within the broader Church. Rooted in pastoral experience and theological reflection, Shepherding Peace offers a faithful and inclusive witness to the Church's call to stand with the marginalized and to proclaim justice as integral to the life of faith.

Written for clergy, pastoral ministers, theologians, and engaged lay Catholics, this book affirms that the work of peace is not optional, but central to the Church's identity and mission.
