Product Overview
The pressure of
expectations often means that priests fail to care for themselves and neglect
their own spiritual life. Thinking they must be able to do it all, the need
to be constantly available, to achieve and succeed, to cope with difficult
people, to defend church teaching they question, lack of time for prayer,
unresolved doubt and personal difficulty can all cause spiritual malaise.
Send My Roots Rain explores these pressures and offers realistic and
supportive ways priests can address them while nurturing their own wellbeing
and spiritual development.
Christopher Chapman draws on more than thirty years’ experience of
spiritual direction, formational training and retreat leading, as well as his
own experience of priesthood, to offer a host of simple, life-giving
practices and personal disciplines for spiritual health.
Full of wise advice from someone who understands, this is a book that
priests will turn to again and again. |
