Reviews

[Hazel McHaffie · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a book written for all those who feel disenchanted or marginalised by the church. Holloway offers a warmly compassionate appraisal of where tradition has usurped Christian love, how the faltering can re-engage with Christianity, how the church can open it's arms and heart to those on the fringes whom Jesus himself would seek out.
