In His Great Commission, Our Lord called His apostles “to make disciples of all nations.” The history of the Faith can be told as just that — the conversion of whole nations and cultures. So how should we understand the Catholic mission to America? What has been the dominant missiological strategy? Has it succeeded? Dr. Pecknold examines some historical problems with the Catholic mission to America and asks how our strategy might change to be more faithful to the Great Commission today.
