What Is the Church?

In his 1998 encyclical Tertio Millennio Adveniente, Pope John Paul II asked catechists and theologians “to promote a deeper understanding of the ecclesiological doctrine of the Second Vatican Council as contained primarily in the Dogmatic Constitution Lumen Gentium” (no. 47). To respond to this call, Dr. Regis Martin wrote What Is the Church? in order to present a faithful ecclesiology in simple, accessible terms.

In a style that manages to be as poetic as it is theological rich, Martin unfolds the mystery of the Church with deference and sincere devotion. What Is the Church?: Confessions of a Cradle Catholic is an introduction to the Church that will delight the reader as it simultaneously conveys the truth of the Church established by Christ.
