Habits of a Priestly HeartMarriage: The Rock on Which the Family is Built - IIn today's society, marriage is under tremendous attack. This raises an important question: is marriage the foundation of family life? Many people today would say, "No!" Others would say, "Yes!", but they would define "family" and "marriage" in ways at odds with how the words have been used throughout human history.

From one of today's most remarkable priests, who has devoted a great deal of his life to research and writings concerning the life of priests, comes this inspiring new book. Habits of a Priestly Heart is designed to help today's priests better understand, accept, and live with the new and sometimes overwhelming challenges of the third millennium. Insights are given through Fr. Hemrick's experiences with the priests he has encountered throughout his own spiritual journey. These priests display a "priestly heart" that is alive and well, while demonstrating habits that have brought them to a healthy and joy-filled life centered in Christ.

Topics include:

  • Resisting the temptation that once a priest is ordained he is defined
  • Growing in kindness and holding at bay anything that threatens it
  • Keeping the contemplative edge sharp
  • Embracing ongoing education and physical fitness
  • Creating a new synergism of domestic and international priests, deacons, and the laity.

Hemrick's practical wisdom will enrich the lives of all priests and help others to better understand this truly remarkable vocation.
