Finally! A Practical Guide for Discerning a Vocation to the Priesthood Today
Come Follow Me: How to Discern a Vocation to the Priesthood
Fr. Brett Brannen
St Ignatius Loyola said, "A man must have more reason not to pursue a vocation to the priesthood than he must have for pursuing one." But, how do you know if God is really calling you to the priesthood? What are the qualities of a good priest? How do you discern between two vocations? If you think God may be calling you, where can you turn for continued discernment? In this challenging new series, Fr. Patrick Brennan provides invaluable insights for men who may be called to the Holy Priesthood.
Prepared and recorded before the Blessed Sacrament, these enlightening CDs reveal that the current "vocation crisis" is really a crisis of faith. We know that Our Lord is calling a sufficient number of men to be His priests. However, too many men today lack the faith to believe that if they do the will of God, they will be happy. With many true-life stories and examples from the Saints, Father relates eighteen specific signs and characteristics of those called to the priesthood, the question parents must ask to help their children discern their vocation, and the necessary virtues required to be a man of courage in an age of little faith.
