This collection of homilies delivered by Joseph Ratzinger (Benedict XVI) over six decades offers deep theological and historical insights on the meaning of the life and the witness of a Catholic priest.
When Pope Benedict XVI inaugurated the Year for Priests in 2009, he did so in conjunction with celebrating the 150th anniversary of the death of John Vianney, the patron saint of all parish priests. Benedict's purpose for that special year is the same purpose of this book of homilies, to deepen the commitment of priests to interior renewal for the sake of a stronger and more incisive witness to the Gospel in today's world.
These homilies are meant to illuminate and to inspire priests to renew their commitment to "teaching and learning the love of God." The homilies cover a wide variety of important topics on the priesthood, are deeply rooted in Scripture, including acting in persona Christi.
