016: The Bridegroom (Why celibacy for priests? Part II)

The Thoughtful Catholic

In this episode I’ll continue the discussion from the last episode and present a few thoughts to ponder from Robert Cardinal Sarah on priestly celibacy from the book he co-authored with Pope Benedict entitled, “From the Depths of Our Hearts: Priesthood, Celibacy, and the Crisis of the Catholic Church”. This will not in any way be an exhaustive treatment of Cardinal Sarah’s words on the subject, but rather just some food for thought.
