Description
The More Discerning Priest: Mature Discernment in Priesthood - Fr. Tmothy M. Gallagher, O.M.V. - Emmaus Road (Paperback)
As a priest matures in prayer and ministry, new challenges of discernment arise. No longer is the enemy's tactic simply discouragement and spiritual desolation; now the temptation may come under the appearance of good—energizing, attractive, even seemingly holy.
In The More Discerning Priest, Fr. Timothy Gallagher, OMV, guides priests through St. Ignatius of Loyola's "second rules" for discernment, offering clarity for these more delicate spiritual trials.
Through the story of "Father Tom," a composite of lived priestly experience, Gallagher shows how priests can recognize deceptive encouragements, safeguard their spiritual fruitfulness, and remain rooted in the mission God truly desires.
Pastoral, practical, and deeply faithful, this book is a companion for every priest seeking mature discernment in service to Christ and His people.
