Editor's note -- What do you fear? / Introduction by the two authors -- I. The Catholic priesthood / by Benedict XVI -- II. Loving to the end: an ecclesiological and pastoral look at priestly celibacy / by Robert Cardinal Sarah -- In the shadow of the cross / Conclusion by the two authors.
"Responding to calls for refashioning the priesthood, including proposals from the Amazonian Synod, two ... pastors explain the biblical and spiritual role of the priesthood, celibacy, and genuine priestly ministry. Drawing on Vatican II, they present priestly celibacy as more than 'a mere precept of ecclesiastical law.' They insist that renewal of the Church is bound to a renewed understanding of priestly vocation as sharing in Jesus' priestly identity as Bridegroom of the Church"--Publisher marketing.
