&#8212#8220Adam DeVille&#8217svision is at once forward-thinking and
eminently traditional. Without a doubt this is a book that can raise quite a stir.
And I hope it will. It deserves serious, prayerful reading.&#8221&#8212BIHOP
JOHN MICHAEL BOTEANThe most serious sex abuse crisis in Catholic
history demands the most serious and far-reaching response. This book is a
contribution to that response. Its proposed changes would revolutionize
Catholic structures from the parish to the papacy. Unlike other revolutions,
however, this one is anchored with great care in both history and theology,
including that of the various Eastern Churches.This book shows that the
current monocausal explanations of abuse and cover-up (either
&#8220clricalism&#8221or &#8220hoosexuality&#8221 both overlook the
structural issues of governance. The current centralized structures, which
monopolize power in the hands of bishops and popes, must be reformed and
in their place new structures of local accountability implemented, in order for
the Church to move past the present crisis.This is a radical book in the original
sense of the word: a return to root practices that structured much of Catholic
life for hundreds of years. It is thus a deeply &#8220trditionalist&#8221book
rooted strongly in venerable Christian practices, but is also an openly
&#8220lieral&#8221book that argues in favor of liberating the laics so they can
resume with voice and vote their rightful role in the councils of
governance.&#8220Adm DeVille&#8217svision is at once forward-thinking and

REV. JOHN MICHAEL BOTEAN&#8220Inthis provocative and serious book,
Adam DeVille presents radical ways of transforming the Church through a
return to synodal and conciliar structures rooted in the traditions of the ancient
Church. His is a strong, courageous challenge to an embattled and damaged
Church.&#8221#8212THE V. REV. MICHAEL PLEKON&#8220Ths book
eloquently and cogently pleads for the Roman Catholic Church to be released
from the captivity of an over-centralized, over-individualized model of authority,
arguing that this model is at the heart of many other dysfunctionalities. A
sober, theologically informed, and very significant work.&#8221#8212RT.
REV. ROWAN WILLIAMS&#8220Sering and fearless, Adam DeVille
humanizes the meaning of the sexual abuse crisis in the Catholic Church and
calls for a radical reconfiguration of the exercise of power. Professor
DeVille&#8217svision will frighten many a hierarch, because only a Church in
which bishops, clergy, and laity share authority can rescue Catholicism from
cultural and spiritual shipwreck.&#8221#8212RT. REV. ARCHPRIEST
LAWRENCE CROSS&#8220Reders with open minds and generous hearts will
find this a provocative, helpful contribution to the badly needed debate about

reform in the Church at a moment when reform is so urgently
needed.&#8221#8212RUSSELL SHAW&#8220Inelligent and provocative, this
book is written out of a deep love for the Church. One needn&#8217tagree
with DeVille on every point to profit from his perceptive analysis of the present
ecclesial situation and from his proposals for
reform.&#8221#8212CHRISTOPHER J.
RUDDY&#8220Deille&#8217spainfully honest analysis, informed with his longestablished
academic rigor, creativity, and captivating style, makes for gripping
reading wedded to an implementable call to action.&#8221#8212RADU
BORDEIANU&#8220Wrting with exceptional passion, Adam DeVille identifies
a path that might allow Roman Catholics to move past &#8216thcurrent papalcentric
structure&#8217and toward a Church in which authority and decisionmaking
power is more jointly shared by laity, clergy, and
bishops.&#8221#8212VIGEN GUROIAN
