A Courageous Book for a Critical Time
The Mission Driven Parish is a courageous book written by a heroic pastor seeking the best of God's Reign for those he serves. In his revealing autobiographical style, Fr. Patrick Brennan shows, not tells, how a Catholic parish, its staff and parishioners can make evangelization, the recognized mission of the Catholic Church, the hub of parish life. And it works. The impact of Fr. Brennan's ...
Civilizing Authority: Society, State, and Church
Patrick Brennan
Lexington Books
, 2007
All phases of our social life depend on authority; without it, families, schools, corporations, churches, and civil governments would cease to exist, and human life with them. Civilizing Authority explores the essential commonalities of authority across the spectrum of human living; it also probes the risk that authoritarian abuse will arrive to compensate for the elusiveness of genuine authority in a post-Christian, materialist world.

Re-Imagining Evangelization: Toward the Reign of God and the Communal Parish
Patrick J. Brennan
The Crossroad Publishing Company
, 1995
Evangelization literature, in the past, has been filled with dreams and ideals but few practical steps. This book takes pastoral leaders through the actual steps that a faith community must take to transform vision into conversion. Here is a proven process for refounding the church in community, enabling the empowered, and reaching out to people in their readiness. Set in motion, evangelization will become contagion, and the parish a spiritual ...

Applies Bible Teaching To Real Life
This is an intense book! I personally felt a need to read it slowly over a long period of time as there was much to savor here. The subject matter also lends itself to discussion--I think it would make a very good source text for a discussion group or a retreat. This book, like the Catechism of the Catholic Church, is divided into 4 sections: faith, sacraments, morals, and prayer. Each of the 4 ...
By Nature Equal
John E. Coons
, Patrick M. Brennan
Princeton University Press
, 1999
What do we mean when we refer to people as being equal by nature? In the first book devoted to human equality as a fact rather than as a social goal or a legal claim, John Coons and Patrick Brennan argue that even if people possess unequal talents or are born into unequal circumstances, all may still be equal if it is true that human nature provides them the same access to moral self-perfection. Plausibly, in the authors' view, such access stems ...

Patrick Brennan
Da Capo Press

Secessionville--No longer forgotten.
Patrick Brennan has written a first rate campaign study of the often ignored, but highly important Battles of Secessionville, South Carolina which occurred in mid-June of 1862. The Union forces led by General David Hunter attempted to capture the much hated city of Charleston, by landing troops on James Island, southwest of the city. Brennan wonderfully captures all of the movements ...
The Way of Forgiveness: How to Heal Life's Hurts and Restore Broken Relationships

Charis Books

Deep, moving, helpful
I have read several books on relationships and this one brings everything into focus. Brennan's "work journaling" makes one think and act. Forgiving means working at the relationship. I highly recommend this one.
