The Catholic Church in America has largely misplaced its distinctive
taste and with it, its means both to retain the devoted or to
evangelize the infidel. The issue precedes Vatican II: within the
Tridentine Fifties, many Catholics, looking forward to mainstream
respectability, had already adopted a bourgeois spirituality.
In his first ebook, The Prodigal Church: Restoring Catholic
Custom in an Age of Deception, Brandon McGinley requires
Catholics to return to the essence of the religion, quite than to a
earlier period of Catholic “success”, and so discover artistic methods to
restore a sturdy and evangelical Catholic tradition within the unknown
years to come back.
