Diarmuid O’Murchu holds high the millions on the margins of the church who honor Jesus but feel they don’t fit in because of an alternative vision or minority status resulting from race, ethnicity, social standing or sexual orientation. Inclusivity offers a faith dynamic characterized by discipleship with an adult Jesus in the service of an adult God. It is a gift of the “Pope Francis effect,” an inevitable drive to reach out and bring in, the next step in a universal movement toward spiritual wholeness.

Praise
Diarmuid O’Murchu continues to bring fresh eyes and prophetic vision to the wounded Church he loves. Like a good medical doctor, in Inclusivity: A Gospel Mandate he skillfully diagnoses the long festering wounds of radical patriarchy and the scandal of exclusion and writes a prescription for healing.
