Further thoughts on renewal

A small portion of my more than 20-year-old monograph on the state of the religious life has been extracted and posted at Daily Episcopalian. I commend it in part because the issues of renewal and restructure in the church reflect similar patterns to those experienced by religious communities, historically and in recent years. The excerpted passage deals with the "doubt" phase of a community's life-cycle, and in this post-Constantinian era many of the churches are going through precisely this phase.
