Description: Sacerdotal Scribbling from the Edge of a Dying Culture

Example domain paragraphs

There is nothing in the above inadequate description of the Christian vision that claims any originality; others could no doubt give a better account.

The quotation above, from the very book itself, would sum up my critique of this book.

For the last 8 months or so I have been highly critical of the book From Christendom to Apostolic Mission: Pastoral Strategies for an Apostolic Age which was published with no named author in 2020. Since its appearance I have seen it pop up all over the place especially in my own Diocese. Ever since I read the book I have criticized it heavily as lazy, inadequate, pietistic and unoriginal. My basic evaluation of the book after some conversations and a number of readings has not changed.
