Scholarly essays on contemporary religious life and ecclesial movements in the church, including treatments of the history of religious life in the United States, the realitites of religious life today, and the context of the new largely lay-led movements in the church.

Annual Volume #60 of the College Theology Society, this book of collected essays explores a timely issue in the Catholic church today: religious life. Consisting of fifteen essays originally delivered as papers at the College Theology Society annual meeting in Latrobe, PA in May/June of 2014, this book offers the reflections and analyses of teachers across a broad spectrum of experience and background, including plenary addresses by Sandra Schneiders on the history of religious life in the U.S., Bishop Joseph Tobin on the current state of religious life, and Dennis Doyle on new ecclesial movements in the church. It comes at a time when the impact and future of religious life is verymuch a topic of discussion in church circles.
