‘A Future Built on Faith is deeply engaging and thought provoking because of the variety and inclusiveness of the contributions. Monastics, mendicants, and ministerial religious reflect on the life as it is being lived in their respective traditions. enclosed and non-enclosed religious, women and men, ordained and lay, older and newer members with different experiences of the Council and its aftermath contribute to the picture. Archbishop Joseph Tobin, former Secretary of the Vatican’s dicastery for Consecrated Life, provides an inclusive ecclesial context for all this variety. The resulting presentation of the current state of religious life includes frank confrontation of the very real challenges, the wide diversity of answers, and grounded hope for the future of religious life that is extremely realistic and honest. Religious will recognise their experiences in this book and will draw strength from solidarity in struggle and faith.’ - Prof. Sandra M. Schneiders IHM.

Archbishop Joseph Tobin, Dr Mark Barrett OSB, Dr Brian Terry OFMA, Dr Thomas Whelan CSsP, Dr Vivienne Keeley PC, Br Benedicy Foy (de la Salle).
