Seabury Press has just republished Ross’s Pillars of Flame: Power, Priesthood, and Spiritual Maturity. The Archbishop of Canterbury recommends the book as “a passionate and searching book which unsparingly sets the Gospel in judgment over the popular Christian idolatries of our time.”

The National Catholic Reporter comments, “The questions the author raises come from scriptural and patristic thought.”

In the foreword, Nobel Laureate Archbishop Desmond Tutu says, “Maggie Ross argues cogently and persuasively that we should provide the world with the paradigm of the self-emptying leadership of Christ – not self-serving, not self-aggrandizing, but poured out in selfless service of others.”

According to Seabury Press, Maggie Ross “…minces no words in her critique of the contemporary Church, and goes on to propose changes so sweeping and fundamental that we sense what a truly Christian Church would be.”
