Rev. Howard Bleichner SS
Acerca de esta escucha
The priesthood has proven resilient throughout history and is in no danger of disappearance, but does face enormous challenges. The rites, rituals, symbolism, and the role of the priest have undergone profound changes. The priesthood has been rocked with scandals that have weakened the bond between priests and bishops and has undermined the prestige of priesthood. Rev. Bleichner outlines ways for the priest to cope with this new situation. He reminds the listener of the profound role that the priest plays in the history of salvation and the life of the people of God. He stresses the understanding of priest as configured with Christ as prophet, priest, and shepherd. He addresses the role of priest as minister of the word and sacraments of the Church. He emphasizes the need for simplicity of life for the priest and a strong sense of vocation. He outlines the rules for simplicity of life in the priesthood in a complex world.
