Reviews
Kavanaugh's compelling journey from priest to poverty to best-selling author and poet has been referred to in many of his other works, from A Modern Priest Looks at His Outdated Church to America, I Love You but Not like I Used To. In this current offering Kavanaugh again writes about his life, but this is not an autobiography in the classic sense of recording all of one's experiences. Rather, it is an intense focus on Kavanaugh's revelation that the God he grew up with is indeed dead and there is a different God, a God within each person, that lives. Readers will see a quiet and intense reflection that has been formulating for some time in this man's mind. Kavanaugh's invitation to leave institutions to find the God within will frighten some and offend others; but he writes (and invites) with conviction and friendly openness. Mary Deeley
A former Roman Catholic priest and prolific writer, Kavanaugh ( A Modern Priest Looks at His Outdated Church , 1967) gives a moving account of the development of his thinking away from mythically defined dogma to the experience of a God of love who lives. Now a poet and psychologist, Kavanaugh writes lyrically, often engaging in autobiographical narrative and thoughtful reflection. Of his God, Kavanaugh writes, "He does not communicate in selected sects alone. He speaks to me in the wind and the rain, in a woman's arms." Ultimately, Kavanaugh finds God persuasive rather than punishing--and yet still exclusively referred to by masculine pronouns. This book is critical, but its tone is celebrative and constructive. Highly recommended for all libraries.
