As a Christian ethicist and expert on Catholic social thought, Pat McCormick has developed a national reputation both through his writings and his public appearances.   Working with co-author Russell Connors, he has published two very important books on contemporary Christian ethics, Character, Choices, and Community: The Three Faces of Christian Ethics (1998) and Facing Ethical Issues: Dimensions of Character, Choice and Community (2002).

McCormick's latest book is entitled A Banqueter’s Guide to the All-Night Soup Kitchen of the Kingdom of God (2004).  He writes a monthly column for the magazine U.S. Catholic on Christianity, culture, and ethics.  For this work, he has twice won the Cardinal Bernardin Communications Award for Professional Excellence.  

As a speaker, McCormick is in great demand.  In the past dozen years, he has given over fifty talks, retreats and workshops for parishes, colleges, hospitals, clergy and dioceses around the country.
