1. CitationHoban, Where Do We Go from Here?, 10. Hoban is a very astute observer of the crisis that has taken hold of Irish Catholicism. As a priest working on the ground in Mayo, he has first-hand experience of the lack of leadership in the Irish Church, the crisis in vocations and the poor morale among the overworked diocesan clergy.
