Richard Rohr is a modern prophet calling us to change our ways. Painting a bleak picture of the prevailing thought, culture and attitudes of the present-day West -- which he calls "The Postmodern Opportunity" -- including our cultural biases, our embrace of victimhood, our often fearful attitudes toward one another and toward the Church and religion in general -- all our darknesses -- Rohr offers hope in introducing the Franciscan path of transformation, the "new way of being that would change the face of history." Rohr describes how following Saint Francis' way to forgiveness and love, and "owning the darkness," can bring us out of the postmodern pit in which we find ourselves.
