A young parish priest calls for help in dealing with a problem beyond his experience and capability. A veteran priest comes out of unwanted retirement to answer the cell. Father Gilbert, a former missionary, has served in one of the world’s toughest missions, before a breakdown and fall from grace saw him unworthiness, he stole. Overcoming a profound sense of unworthiness, he has returned to the priesthood. Not wearing the disgrace of his former life lightly, he is driven to make amends. He forms an unlikely alliance with the young Father Ward, and together they fight an ancient Enemy, wearied no by time. A very compelling story within a contemporary setting. I had difficulty putting the book down and that hasn’t happened in a long time Sir Patrick J. Lynch. KNZM, QSO. This book really resonated with many aspects of what it is to be priest. It would make good reading for seminarians and a copy should be in the seminary library. Father Larry Rustia. Only a Priest is poignant, funny and thought-provoking, as it look at today’s Catholicism and reflects back on both the weaknesses and strengths Dr. Ly Wytenbroeck.
