McCartin’s seminal work Prayers of the Faithful (Harvard UP, 2010) examines how American Catholics’ spiritual practices evolved alongside societal changes from the 1860s to 1980s. His ongoing project explores American Catholics and sexuality from the 1830s to 1980s.
His publications include analyses of Catholic piety’s intersection with civil rights, war, and cultural shifts. McCartin teaches courses such as ‘Catholics in America’ and ‘Faith and Critical Reason.’
