Description/Details: New York Times-bestselling author and America Media editor at large Fr. James Martin, S.J., will debut his latest book,  Building a Bridge, which focuses on the relationship between LGBT Catholics and the Church.

Turning to the Catechism, Fr. Martin draws on the three criteria at the heart of the Christian ministry — "respect, compassion, and sensitivity" — as a model for the Catholic Church’s relationship with the LGBT community.
