I Will Give Them a New Heart. Reflections on the Priesthood and the Renewal of the Church
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Addressing the needs of the faithful necessitates addressing the needs of those who bring Christ to us in a special way — priests, religious and consecrated persons. In a time burdened with doubt, mistrust, and suspicion of the Church and those who serve her, psychiatrist Conrad W. Baars, M.D. offers profound insight to aid lay persons, priests and religious in order to help usher in a new springtime of life into the Church. Edited by Suzanne M. Baars, M.A. (the doctor's daughter) and Bonnie N. Shayne, M.A., the sample essays are collected to discuss the mental and emotional causes of the trials and scandals of the Church of the recent past and includes an analysis and remedies of those problems. The scholarly book discusses how to treat and prevent the crisis in the priesthood, the affirming power of love, morality and the Christian Anthropology of Thomas Aquinas, forgiveness, anger and the alcoholic priest.
