Book excerpt: The Catholic Church has gone 'off mission'. The scandal and tragedies ofclerical child sexual abuse and the cover-up by bishops is symptomaticof a deeply ailing church.Getting Back on Mission focuses on Jesus' mission for the Church;it exposes dysfunctional governance involving a grave lack ofaccountability and transparency, and the exclusion of the People ofGod - particularly women.This is a contribution to the Australian Plenary Council 2020/21. Its purposeis twofold: to get the Church back 'on mission'; and to show how that canbe achieved 'together'.The reforms proposed are based on sound evidence and analysis. ForCatholics wanting genuine renewal of their Church, this roadmap forchange is a must-read and an essential companion book for the PlenaryCouncil.Getting Back on Mission is forward-looking and founded on trust in theSpirit - it is about hope.
