Pope Francis wants to bring about a quiet revolution within the Catholic Church. He wants a reformed church in which the `sense of the faithful', the instinct of baptized men and women, is given a role in the formation and reception of Church teaching an

Gerry O'Hanlon is a Jeusit preist, theologian and former Provincial of the Irish Jesuits. He taught for many years at the Milltown Institute, and later joined the Jesuit Centre for Faith and Justice, where he has written extensively on Church reform and the role of the Church in the public square. He has been Adjunct Professor of Theology in the Loyola Institute at Trinity College, Dublin.
In this new book O'Hanlon offers an Irish theology for a church in crisis, carefully crafted in the light of his experience of having travelled the length and breadth of Ireland over the last 10 years. This is not an armchair theology but one that has been chiselled out of the experience of listening to and learning from others in high and low places, engaging with diverse groups, attending to the teaching of Vatican II, and heeding the prophetic voice of the Bishop of Rome. ... a wake-up call for a slumbering church;From the Foreword by Dermot A. Lane: Gerry O'Hanlon's book draws on decades of reflection, by himself and by others, upon the immense challenges facing the Catholic Church in the post-Vatican II period, in Ireland and beyond. We have lacked neither the vision nor the goodwill to move forward; but the institutional and organisational reforms needed to make Vatican II an embedded reality have eluded us, until now. Pope Francis, the 'gentle revolutionary', has called for a new, 'synodal' way of being church. 'Synod' means "the path which we walk together", and it looks like the missing piece of the jigsaw. O'Hanlon's wise, critical but hopeful diagnosis offers the glimpse of a longed-for sea-change for the Church.Michael Kirwan SJ, theologian, Loyola School of Catholic Theology, Trinity College, Dublin.
