Barry Hudock

I am the author of Faith Meets World: The Gift and Challenge of Catholic Social Teaching (Liguori Publications, 2013) and The Eucharistic Prayer: A User's Guide (Liturgical Press, 2010).I'm also in the initial stages of work on a book to follow that, tentatively titled John Courtney Murray: What Every Catholic Should Know about the Most Influential American at Vatican II and His Struggle for the Truth about Religious Freedom.I earned my STL in sacramental theology from The Catholic University of America. In my day job, I'm an associate publisher at Liturgical Press, which means I get to spend my days preparing some great books for publication. Prior to coming to Lit Press, I worked as executive director of two nonprofit agencies which serve people living in poverty in Mingo County, West Virginia.My wife and I live, with our seven kids (except the one who's away at college), in central Minnesota.
