Review Quotes
"Vatican II at 60 will rekindle the fire in our hearts for the reforms and renewal of the Church that was catalyzed by that miraculous Council--as its legacy continues to unfold. This wonderful collection of essays by distinguished leaders with prophetic voices will do exactly what the text promises--Re-energize the Renewal."--Thomas Groome, Boston College, School of Theology and Ministry
"This is a very important book because it is one of the rare attempts--extremely necessary now--to go beyond the phase of 'memorialization' of Vatican II and to take a hard, honest look at the role of the council for the renewal of the Church today." --Massimo Faggioli, Villanova University
