Sobre IBD

In this lively and hopeful volume, John Pritchard realistically maps out the life and work of those called to serve God in the ordained ministry. He looks in turn at the only three things he believes need be of concern: the glory of God, the pain of the world, and the renewal of the Church. From these flow the priest’s many roles, such as spiritual explorer, multi-lingual interpreter, wounded companion, friendly irritant, creative leader and mature risk-taker. This book pays homage to Robert Martineau’s The Office and Work of a Priest, published in 1972, and much valued as a wise account of the duties of a priest at that time. 'Dipping again into John Pritchard’s The Life and Work of a Priest for this review reminded me what a remarkable, wise, and humane book it is. It covers just about everything parish life might throw at clergy. Well, not quite everything. If you’re troubled by sylvan revels or cohabiting bandits, I’m afraid you’re on your own.' Paul Handley, Church Times
