Faith Talk

In Faith Talk, Dr. Bob McCarty challenges catechists, teachers, and youth ministers to examine their ministry practices in light of Saint Mary’s Press’s Going, Going, Gone research. This research into young people’s disaffiliation from the Church is a wake-up call for all those who minister within the Church.

It provides you the vision and practical tools to shift from focusing on telling young people what to believe, to instead focusing on accompanying young people on their faith journey. Dr. McCarty provides a vision, a methodology, and practical tools for this shift, starting by deeply listening to young people’s experiences, their questions, and their concerns about life, spirituality, and the Church.
