Summary:"A century and a half before the time of Jesus, a movement of educated Jewish laity initiated a profound transformation of Judaism. Bernard Lee uses this as a metaphor for the hidden revolution in the U.S. Catholic Church today: the development of a lay interpretation of Catholic Christian identity.

Accordingly, some form of dialogic community is ecclesiologically appropriate to give the lay experience of faith a legitimated voice in the telling of the Catholic story"--From publisher description.
