 Confronting Power and Sex in the Catholic Church:
Reclaiming the Spirit of Jesus
with Bishop Geoffrey Robinson
St. Mark's Lutheran Church
100 Harter Road
Morristown, NJ
Directions: http://www.ourvineyard.org/LWNJ.html
Bishop Geoffrey Robinson will join us to discuss his book Confronting Power and Sex in the Catholic Church: Reclaiming the Spririt of Jesus.
Through the story of sexual abuse and the church's response, I came to the unshakable belief that within the Catholic Church there absolutely must be profound and enduring change. In particular, there must be change on the two subjects of power and sex." ( from the book's introduction.) - Bishop Geoffrey Robinson.
His publisher's website says: In his book, he offers nothing less than a vision for a church of the thrid millennium--a church that wants to see in its members the reponsibility appropirate to adults rather than the obedience appropriate to children, and wants to help all people to grow to become all they are capable of being. Readers will love or hate this book, but will not be able to be neutral.
