If the priesthood is to be renewed, and surely it must be, the renewal must take the form as described in Reclaiming Our Priestly Character by Father David L. Toups, S.T.D. Reclaiming Our Priestly Character by Father David L. Toups, S.T.D. is a clear, simple and thorough mastery of literature in which the author shows that the essence of the ministerial priesthood consists in the sacramental character that configures the ordained to Christ the High Priest.
Avery Cardinal Dulles, S.J.
Reclaiming Our Priestly Character by Father David L. Toups, S.T.D. is a valuable and spiritually enriching reflection of today’s priesthood. I could not recommend this work more highly.
Archbishop Edwin F. O’Brien
