Spiritual Direction for Priestly Celibacy - Paperback
by David Songy (Author)
A reference book and guide for spiritual directors, seminary formators, and seminarians that approaches the subject of celibate chastity from a positive perspective, i.e., not focusing primarily on problems in the area of sexuality but setting forth a vision rooted in Catholic Church teaching on celibacy and providing practical suggestions for incorporating this vision into spiritual direction for seminarians.
