"The time has come to proclaim the kingdom of God like an arrow flying into the darkness, to plough deeply into the human lives placed on earth around us and to chart the course for a bold new journey"

Spearhead was written to challenge, inspire and provoke new ways of thinking about the Catholic Church and its mission in the modern world. In his unique style, Pat Keady proposes a contagious vision for the Church to move forward through an authentic reconnection with culture and the core message of the gospel.

Inspired by Pope Francis and the vision that has shaped his own ministry, Spearhead  looks forward to the day when the phrase ‘new evangelisation’ is hopefully no longer necessary. Pat casts a vision of the Church as a fluid institution that speaks to the modern world, operates with grace above legalism, professes the good news of Jesus with attractive authenticity, overflows with young people and goes beyond itself to reach the world outside her borders. In short, a church of missionary disciples whom Jesus could easily identify as his own.
