Is Catholic Doctrine Pastoral?

Yes, according to America's leading pastoral magazine.

Homiletic & Pastoral Review (HPR) refuses to act like Catholic doctrine and sound pastoral practice are enemies. With John Paul II, we believe that "what is doctrinal is not opposed to what is pastoral." Doctrine is, after all, about the truth. And the truth, as Jesus taught, sets us free. Pastoral ministry that isn't based on the truth won't free people. And yet doctrine that isn't applied - that's not practiced as well as preached - won't either. That's why each issue of HPR gives readers both sound teaching and genuine pastoral application.

HPR provides:

• First-rate articles by great Catholic writers on doctrine and authentic pastoral practice.
• Answers to your questions by one of today's top moral theologians.
• Outstanding homilies for Sundays and holy days of obligation.
• Reviews of the latest and best Catholic books.

Homiletic & Pastoral Review is essential reading for anyone concerned with the Church's pastoral ministry.
