Change and Confusion in Catholicism

A Historical Perspective on Today’s Liminal Church

By: Nathan R. Kollar

We live in a liminal time. The anthropologist Victor Turner describes liminality as a time of severe disorientation for individuals and societies that lies between one stage of life and another. All the former signposts that provided people with an identity are in a state of upheaval as they transit between these stages. This book uses the lifelong personal and professional experiences of the author to analyse how Catholics experience liminality today and dealt with it yesterday. It provides the reader with an historical case study of frightening experiences, both in teaching what to expect during such a time and what to assume when it ends.

Defending Religious Diversity in Public Schools

A Practical Guide for Building Our Democracy and Deepening Our Education

By: Nathan Kollar

This volume shows how and why our public schools should prepare to understand and deal with religious diversity in the United States and the world. Defending Religious Diversity in Public Schools: A Practical Guide for Building Our Democracy and Deepening Our Education makes a powerful case for exposing students to the multiplicity of faiths practiced in the United States and around the world—then offers a range of practical solutions for promoting religious understanding and tolerance in the school environment. Nathan Kollar's timely volume centers on the common issues associated with respecting religion in people's lives, including religious identities, the religious rights of students, bullying and other acts of intolerance, and legal perspectives on what should and should not happen in the classroom. It then focuses on the skills teachers, counselors, and administrators need to master to address those issues, including forming an advocacy coalition, listening, cultural analysis, conflict resolution, institutional development, choosing a leader, and keeping up to date with all the latest research developments from both the legal and educational communities.

Soul Searching

A Handbook for Discovering, Developing, and Talking about Your Spirituality

By: Nathan R. Kollar

Soul Searching: A Handbook for Discovering, Developing, and Talking about Your Spirituality offers you an opportunity to learn about the spiritualities of others while discovering your own. It does so by providing you with five chapters describing the nature of spirituality as well as its history, signposts, sources, and diverse manifestations in the world's religions. It also provides you with five Dear Diary chapters that encourage you to describe, reflect upon, develop, and choose what is necessary for you to become a mature spiritual person. This is an ideal book for discussion groups that wish to learn about other religions, spiritualities, and how to make intelligent choices for personal and communal living. Appendices at the end of the book provide internet and print resources for further research into the spiritualities of the world, glossaries to help cut a path through the one hundred and eighty seven million web offerings, a list of key facts for understanding the classical spiritualities, and a list of dos and don'ts for talking about spirituality. If you are seeking to discover your own spirituality and understand those of others, this is a necessary part of your search.
