Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Facts in a Clergyman's Life There are few, I do not think there can be any, of those who are blessed with your friendship, that can prize it so truly as I do. I thank God with an espe cial gratitude, for the ten years I passed in almost daily intercourse with you - for your counsel, for your affection, and above all, for the benefit of your consist ent and admirable example. I cannot look back on that time without a heavy heart, because it is gone, and on earth that daily intercourse is over; but the retrospect of those happy days cheers me during my present warfare in this corrupt world, in the midst of many difficulties and many short-comings; for I have seen in you, what the grace of God has wrought in one naturally as weak and sinful as myself. I pray, from my heart, that if it please God, you may be long spared to those - myself among the number - to whom the loss of you, when you are gone, can never be supplied; and that being one in Christ now, we may all, whether absent from the body, or still in the body, be one in Christ with you, for ever.

Book Jane Austen and the Clergy

Download or read book Jane Austen and the Clergy written by Irene Collins and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jane Austen was the daughter of a clergyman, the sister of two others and the cousin of four more. Her principal acquaintances were clergymen and their families, whose social, intellectual and religious attitudes she shared. Yet while clergymen feature in all her novels, often in major roles, there has been little recognition of their significance. To many readers their status and profession is a mystery, as they appear simply to be a sub-species of gentlemen and never seem to perform any duties. Mr Collins in Pride and prejudice is often regarded as little more than a figure of fun. Astonishingly, Jane Austen and the Clergy is the first book to demonstrate the importance of Jane Austen's clerical background and to explain the clergy in her novels, whether Mr Tilney in Northanger Abbey, Mr Elton in Emma, or a less prominent character such as Dr Grant in Mansfield Park. In this exceptionally well-written and enjoyable book, Irene Collins draws on a wide knowledge of the literature and history of the period to describe who the clergy were, both in the novels and in life: how they were educated and appointed the houses they lived in and the gardens they designed and cultivated; the women they married; their professional and social context; their income, their duties, their moral outlook and their beliefs. Jane Austen and the Clergy uses the facts of Jane Austen's life and the evidence contained in her letters and novels to give a vivid and convincing portrait of the contemporary clergy.

Book The American Christian Record

Download or read book The American Christian Record written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-16 with total page 714 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Christian Record: Containing the History, Confession of Faith, and Statistics of Each Religious Denomination in the United States and Europe; A List of All Clergymen With Their Post Office Address, Etc., Etc., Etc IN the following pages an effort has been made to realize the idea of the editor and projector, via: to present in a single volume a record of the Church of Chris tendom in all its details. In the prosecution of his task, however, the writer, though prepared at the outset for some disappointment, has had an addition to his experience in the fact that it is more easy to undertake an enterprise than to accomplish it. Applications for information and facts, in many quarters, were not met so generously as he anticipated; in others, perhaps from not wholly under standing the scope and aim of his work, they were treated with silence and in difference; while in not a few, they were regarded as impertinent. But he has great satisfaction in adding that by far the greater number of his applications were cheerfq and promptly responded to; if not in all cases as fully as he could wish, at least with a generous cheerfulness that he shall never forget.

Book The Truth about Clergy Sexual Abuse

Download or read book The Truth about Clergy Sexual Abuse written by Bill Donohue and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work unpacks the history and root causes of the clergy sex abuse scandals in the United States. Building on decades of data and research, author Bill Donohue, who holds a doctorate in sociology, tells the story from a fresh angle and calls us to rethink our assumptions about the Church''s handling of these horrific abuses. The Truth about Clergy Sexual Abuse challenges many myths about the scandals, demonstrating that the abuse of minors is a problem that haunts virtually every institution—religious and secular—where adults interact with young people. The work also provides compelling evidence of the great progress that the Church has made in preventing abuse, contrary to public perceptions. Indeed, the media, Hollywood, and activist lawyers have poisoned the public mind with tales of old cases, giving the impression that nothing has changed. Donohue investigates at length the central role that homosexuality played in the scandal. While homosexuality does not cause sexual abuse, the prevalence of emotional and sexual immaturity among homosexual clergy explains why they committed most of the molestation. Indeed, all of the educational institutions of the Catholic Church, including the seminaries, have been affected by the sexual revolution that began in the 1960s, and this book explores the pernicious effects of dissent from Catholic sexual morality.

Book Catholic Priests Falsely Accused

Download or read book Catholic Priests Falsely Accused written by David F. Pierre and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2013-02-21 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We must continue to demand justice and compassion for victims of Catholic clergy abuse. This is not optional. Time and time again in recent years, Catholics and non-Catholics alike have been horrified by hideous stories of wretched abuse and betrayal. However, there is a side of the Catholic Church abuse narrative that is not getting the attention it warrants. Countless priests in the United States have been falsely accused of committing horrendous child abuse. Topics in this book include: ... how the most recent figures indicate that one third of accused priests have been accused falsely; ... the stunning court declaration with the opinion from a retired FBI investigator that "one half" of all accusations are "entirely false" or "greatly exaggerated"; ... the American cardinal who has been the target of two bogus abuse charges; ... how accusers have retained huge monetary settlements even though their allegations later proved to be false; ... the father of an accuser who appeared at the funeral of an accused priest and apologized for the false allegation that his son leveled; ... the Catholic archbishop who tells of being spat upon by a member of SNAP (Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests); ... the monsignor who waited five years to be exonerated of abuse charges even though his alleged victims denied that they were molested; plus much more.

Book Clericalism

    Book Details:
  • Author : George B. Wilson
  • Publisher : Liturgical Press
  • Release : 2017-06-15
  • ISBN : 0814639828
  • Pages : 180 pages

Download or read book Clericalism written by George B. Wilson and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2017-06-15 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Searching for answers in the midst of the sexual abuse crisis in the church, many blamed the clerical culture. But what exactly is this clerical culture? We may know it when we see it, but how can we 'whether clergy or laypeople 'go about dismantling it and putting in place a new, healthy culture? George Wilson has spent decades working with organizations to help them discover, and often recover, their foundational calling. He is also a Jesuit priest engaged in the lives of congregations. In Clericalism: The Death of Priesthood he brings together both capacities and gives his sense of the challenges facing the church. As members of the church, Wilson maintains, we are all responsible for creating a clerical culture. And we are also responsible for that culture's transformation. Clericalism aids this transformation by helping us examine some underlying attitudes that create and preserve destructive relationships between ordained and laity. After looking at the crisis and establishing where we are now, this book challenges us with concrete suggestions for changing behaviors. We are lay and ordained, but all baptized into the royal priesthood of 1 Peter 2:9, all called to spread the Gospel and do the work of God's love in the world. Ultimately, this is a hopeful book, looking for the restoration of a genuine priesthood, free of clericalism, in which we become truly united in Christ..
