Description
"Priestly celibacy, some say, is an outdated relic from another age. Others see it as a lonely way of life. But as Fr. Carter Griffin argues ... , the ancient practice of celibacy, when lived well, helps a priest exercise his spiritual fatherhood joyfully and fruitfully. Along the way, Griffin explores: the question of optional celibacy; some pitfalls of celibate paternity; the selection and formation of candidates for celibate priesthood; why biological fathers are also called to spiritual fatherhood; the powerful impact of celibacy on the Church and the wider culture."--
