In this thoughtful exploration, Simon Cuff addresses key aspects of priestly life and the ways in which it prophetically stands in contrast to the priorities of contemporary culture. 'Priesthood' explores the foundational relationship between Christ's priesthood and ordained ministry. 'Parish' reflects on the intimate nature of serving a community. In 'Power and Privilege', readers consider the ethical dimensions of authority. 'Prayer and People' emphasizes the importance of communal ministry within the Body of Christ.
