Dr. Cavanaugh's major areas of research include the Church's encounter with social, political, and economic realities.

He has authored 6 books, including Field Hospital: The Church's Engagement with a Wounded World (2016). His next book focuses on secularization and idolatry, exploring the ways in which a supposedly disenchanted Western society remains enchanted by nationalism, consumerism, and cults of celebrity.
