“catholic” (lowecase c) would be the first obvious one. But it’s a false requirement because the Catholic Church cannot be described with only one word, but four to be accurate and precise. The four words are

one;
holy;
catholic;
apostolic.

But if you want one word that is both accurate and can stick in the craw of some people, then I would say the word is:

true

“Universal”

Ok, joking aside I’d probably go with “True” or “Truth” because it’s the only one that’s right. That’s why I follow it.

Truth. Jesus gave us the Church with Saint Peter, and his successors; as the foundation.
 
I would say it is so rich that the Catholic Church is impossible to describe in just one word. I suppose you have to pick a word that is rich in itself which then challenges people to have a deep reflective reaction.

My word would be either Invitation or Jesus.
 
As a non-Catholic through the experiences that I’ve had, I’d say: It can be “exclusive”

Protagonist

(Opposed by an Antagonist)

The Protagonist, while not perfect, seeks to be more so. Ergo, heroic … if not always victorious in the short run.

The Antagonist - opposes the goals and aspirations of that Protagonist ( i.e. the Protagonist going to heaven and taking loved ones along)
