The Lost Art of Walking on Water: Reimagining the Priesthood - Michael Heher

Descriere The Lost Art of Walking on Water: Reimagining the Priesthood - Michael Heher

With bursting congregations, shrinking ranks and a priest sexual abuse scandal in the headlines, no group seems more beleaguered of late than Roman Catholic priests. This book of essays by a priest is candid, thoughtful, honest, sometimes funny and filled with hope and practical suggestions for parish priests today. Facing such challenges as prayer, obedience, celibacy, depression and church leadership, he offers a call to greater transparency and trusting faith. Even turbulent times are graced. Father Heher believes priests can do more than survive this difficult time; they have the capacity to grow more resilient, relaxed, effective and loving. Highlights: --there are many books about priests but few to priests themselves by one of their own --engagingly written --insightful reading for lay people +
