Between Faith and Reason
The Roman Catholic Modernist Crisis erupted as the nineteenth century came to a close and the twentieth century began. Pope St. Pius X famously condemned "modernism" as "the synthesis of all heresies" in his 1907 papal encyclical Pascendi Dominici Gregis. Many may wonder whether or not modernism remains a relevant field of study. Roman Catholic Modernism and the Catholic Magisterium's response to Modernism, was a significant phase in twentieth-century Catholic theology and history, and it formed an essential part of the context necessary for understanding what led to the Second Vatican Council. This volume explores the continued relevance of Modernism, with a special focus on the contributions of Alfred Loisy, one of the pivotal figures within the history of the Modernist Crisis.

Praise for this book
"Between Faith and Reason is an insightful collection of essays that explore Catholic Modernism. Morrow's first chapter is autobiographical and contextualizes Catholic Modernism within the history of modern biblical scholarship. The personal nature of the first chapter makes it my favorite in the book. Morrow then focuses the study onto Alfred Loisy. He draws interesting comparisons between Loisy's ecclesiology and some of the debates and directions taken by the Second Vatican Council, especially on the universal call to holiness. Written in very approachable language, Morrow's handy text would be useful in the classroom or for personal reading and understanding of Catholic thought."
--Biff Rocha, author of A Catholic Guide to the Old Testament
"Professor Morrow has emerged as a leading voice in the study of the Catholic Modernists of the early twentieth century, with a focus on the impact of historical-critical biblical scholarship. Given the ongoing influence of the perspectives they championed, the widespread neglect of the Catholic Modernists among scholars today is shocking--especially since the Modernists' viewpoints are in fact embraced by many contemporary Catholic scholars. Morrow's short volume provides a superb impetus toward reigniting this crucial field."
