In
Where Mortals Dwell, Bartholomew hopes to help Christians
recover a sense of place and "placemaking" in distinctively
Christian terms. To accomplish this, he analyzes the concept
of place in the Bible and in the Western philosophical and
Christian traditions, wrapping up with a discussion of how
Christians can pragmatically begin the work of placemaking
in their local communities >>

flagstones of Canterbury Cathedral, at least a dozen contemporaries
wrote biographies of Becket. For the Pope, previously unconvinced

offered an opportunity to preach the heroism of a Church beset
by secularism and other dark powers >>
