Monday Eucharist:
By William L. Droel
In this provocative book, Bill Droel of the National Center for the Laity argues persuasively that the Eucharist we celebrate each weekend only makes sense when it is tied with what we do the rest of the week.
An exploration of the nature of public friendship and the disciplines that are needed to build and maintain them, including quietude (reflection), compromise, and amicability.
By William L. Droel
Most spiritual memoirs are written by religious professionals. The American Catholic Experience series is an innovative new collection of books exploring the stories of individual Catholics in the United States as they reflect on what it has meant as Catholic laity to live out their faith amidst the joys and challenges of their daily lives?on their jobs, with their families and friends, and in their communities and churches. In Finding My Way in a Faith-Filled World, a memoir of William Droel’s search to discover his calling, Droel documents his move from New York to the Marquette Park neighborhood of Chicago and his involvement with urban parishes and community organizations there.

Considers the laity’s vocation in and to the world and the role of the institutional church in promoting this vocation.
By William Droel
Maybe you’ve experienced much of what the Catholic Church has to offer. The dogma, liturgy, sacramental system, devotion to Mary, and calendar of saints is the same for Catholics around the world. But if you’ve never been to a Catholic Mass in Chicago, then you’ve never experienced the Church quite like William L. Droel. Church, Chicago Style examines the unique legacy of the Catholic Church in Chicago and profiles well-known church leaders like: Russell Barta, Monsignor John Egan, Father Dennis Geaney, Monsignor George Higgins, Ed Marciniak, and Mary Irene Zotti. Discover (or re-discover) the vibrancy that the Catholic Church can have, has had, and could have again.
