"This is not a naive book, or an apologetic one, but it is one filled with empathy and wonder." --Samuel G. Freedman, author of "Upon This Rock: The Miracles of a Black Church"
"Compassionate and eye-opening...it should be required reading for anyone thinking about becoming a priest."
"An engaging look inside a Catholic seminary dispels many mysteries . . . Puts a human face on the word 'priest.'"
"As compelling as a good novel." --Andrew Hudgins
"Wrenching and darkly humorous." --Kimberly Marlowe Hartnett
"Gripping...Englert deftly illuminates a milieu foreign even to most Catholics." --Matthew Hay Brown
A journalist chronicles the spiritual odyssey of five men who choose to leave behind their former lives and careers to pursue the Catholic priesthood, offering a candid study of seminary life, the challenges of the priesthood, and the nature of a spiritual calling. Reprint.

Descripción HOUGHTON MIFFLIN, United States, 2007. Paperback. Condición: New. Reprint. Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****.What does it mean to take up God’s work? What motivates a man in these times to leave the secular for the spiritual life? In The Collar, Jonathan Englert finds the answers in the journey of five men toward the priesthood at Milwaukee’s Sacred Heart Seminary. Like many modern seminarians these men have chosen a ?second career" as priests. With unprecedented access to this closed world, Englert introduces us to a divorced father and avid hunter from Wyoming, an ex-salesman and Marine with ADHD, a recently widowed father of four, a blind musician, and a fifth-year pupil close to ordination. With wit and sometimes heartbreaking candor, they face the challenges of priestly life -- from the traditional hurdles of obedience and chastity to the modern day skepticism of their friends and families.
