Thanks to Jesús Antonio Serrano Sánchez for translating my article, “Polarized Preferences, Polarized Pews” into Spanish for publication in the Mexican journal Puertas Lumen Gentium (Universidad Católica Lumen Gentium). The article originally appeared in my coedited volume, Polarization in the US Catholic Church (Liturgical 2016).

Dr. Sánchez’ reflection and response (“Necesidad de la Parroquia Personal en México: Reflexiones a partir de la propuesta de Tricia Bruce”) appears immediately after, usefully comparing the US situation I describe to that of Mexico, drawing from Sánchez’ own observations.
