"The book tales us on a historical journey from the 5th century onwards, pinpointing the critical shifts in Church reformation and renewal up to this present time. The first volume explores church renewal in a creative synopsis and blends historical, hermeneutical, theological, and pastoral approaches with a depth of spiritual insight. The author's style invites readers to reread Church history in order to appreciate the raison d'etre of the Holy Father's efforts to be an instrument of renewal for the Universal Church. Those who read this first of the series will definitely be drawn to reflection and contemplation on our urgent need for personal and ecclesial reformation."
