The Bernardin Center Series presents works of scholarly and general interest that grow out of activities at the Joseph Cardinal Bernardin Center for Theology and Ministry at Catholic Theological Union. Areas of activity and interest of the Bernardin Center include the ongoing interpretation and implementation of the Second Vatican Council, church leadership, the consistent ethic of life, Catholic health care, the Catholic Common Ground Initiative, interreligious dialogue, and religion in American public life.
