Book Description:
|
This book is a theological reflection on the broken state of faith and of the Catholic Church in Ireland, following more than two decades of revelations of institutional and child sexual abuse and the Church's now acknowledged failure to respond to the abuse in an appropriate way. This has resulted in broken lives, broken faith and a broken church.
