For Sinners Only

by A.J. Russell

This is a book about sinners, for sinners, by quite a big sinner. You may not like it. You may even hate it, as some are sure to do. You may dislike the theme, for, though it introduces lovely people, it comes to grips with an unlovely subject. And solves its riddle. You may dislike the characters as they are limned in print, but not in real life. As they are all living, you may encounter them yourself someday, and discover their excellence. At least one will live on as an historic figure when this generation has merged with the ages. Perhaps many. Meanwhile, none can disprove the contents of this book or avoid its challenge. The story is true; the challenge is to you.

Doesn't quite live up to it's amazing title, but still an interesting read. It's about a religious movement that came about in England in the 1920s. Although it's a Catholic organisation, the group focused mostly on self awareness and sharing experiences in what sounds like a sort of group therapy. At many points it made me feel like this is what religion should be, a way for people to share experiences and work on their issues, not the preachy nonsense they spit in church.
