“We are all priests of God; each one of us called to serve God in our own way”
Sharing Christ’s Priesthood is a light bible study that focuses on how we, as Catholics, share in Christ’s priesthood. Designed for use privately, or in study groups, Aquilina presents a very organized outline designed to give participants a greater understanding of exactly what a priest is.
Aquilina explains that seemingly conflicting ideas of the priesthood are not conflicting at all. We are all called to some aspect of the priesthood: whether is be the ordained; the common; and/or the priesthood of Christ.
Using scripture readings, Church teaching, and history, Aquilina takes readers from Genesis to the New Testament. Each session begins with an assigned Bible reading and thoughtful questions intended to bring the readings into perspective. Each session ends with an “In Practice” section which suggests ways to actually apply the various aspects of Christ’s priesthood to your own daily life.
Once again, Aquilina has presented a complicated idea in an easy to grasp and thought-provoking way.
