"Holloway writes with passion and honesty at all times, and the result is compelling." GUARDIAN
Holloway has turned to poets and writers to help answer the big questions, and for solace and guidance in the face of life's challenges.
This book offers lessons from those who, in Richard's words, 'know best how to listen and teach us to listen', all united by 'the sensual appeal of words, the pain and pleasure they impart'.

Description:
In Reform or Die, seven women theologians avoid the double pitfall of destructive pessimism and blissful optimism and propose an approach which is based on biblical, theological, but also sociological and pastoral expertise.
They address the most urgent subjects: the lessons of the abuse crisis, the place given to women, synodality, welcoming the poorest, and the challenges of inclusion in the contemporary world.
'This book invites deep reflection and should be read by anyone interested in listening to the guiding impulse of the Holy Spirit today!' Susan A. Ross, Loyola University Chicago (emeritia)
