It's time to take a standBy Jackie St. HilaireMatthew Fox gives us the courage to take a stand and speak out for our beliefs without guilt and fear.Matthew Fox found his voice many decades ago and has helped us find ours. Although he has been "silenced" by the Catholic institutional church and has been expelled from the Dominican community; his heart is still rooted in his heritage. Nevertheless; he is determined to go forth and help transform the community that Christ came on earth to teach us.This transformed community that Matthew Fox is building creates instead of rules. Fox is not out to change the Catholic church but to bring back the new life that once was in the beginning. The living Christ.Thank you Matthew Fox; you have been a wonderful leader and mentor in my spiritual quest.Other books for your consideration:Meditations with Meister Eckhart by Matthew FoxWho Told You That You Were Naked?: Freedom From Judgement; Guilt and Fear of Punishment by John Jacob RaubThe Wisdom of Wilderness: Experiencing the Healing Power of Nature by Gerald G MayRadical Optimism: Practical Spirituality in an Uncertain World by Beatrice Bruteau0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

I wanted more about "Creation Spirituality" but there was only a passing mention of that; and no real explication.It is interesting to read all this ten years after publication and see how little has happened and how little has changed.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Matthew Fox'sCase for Needed ReformationBy Thresa G.Matthew Fox is not for the faint-hearted or those who know what they know because they know it. He will challenge beliefs and makes his own case for what he sees as the church's (mostly Roman Catholic; but Protestant too) inability to live what he considers should be modern day religion. Much as Martin Luther did before him; Fox nails his own principles for reformation on the same door as Luther.
