- Description
By Patrick Madrid & Fr. Ray Ryland
Patrick Madrid and Fr. Ray Ryland, Ph.D., tackle the complex and controversial subject of celibacy in the priesthood, presenting the facts about its history and meaning. Together, they debunk common myths about priestly celibacy (such as that it was instituted only in the tenth century, that it leads to “sexual repression,” that it is the root cause of priest sex scandals, etc.), and they show why this is actually a wise discipline that, rather than being “the problem,” actually offers a solution to the problem.
Fr. Ryland, a married clergy convert from Protestantism who is a professor of theology emeritus at Franciscan University of Steubenville, offers a superb analysis of the causes of the current priestly moral scandals and explains why eliminating celibacy won’t resolve either the priest shortage or the current moral scandals.
This audio set will help you understand the real issues that the pundits and critics only talk around. A perfect gift for your priest friends!

Beautiful and succinct commentary on the rosary. The best I’ve ever read. Worth every penny and more.
Great quality and greater reminders of the simple steps to holiness.
The cards were beautiful and made with sturdy card stock
There are many different holy pictures on the cards which is a nice variety. They are lovely to look at and are an additional enhancement to the Divine Praises.
I'll be handing out these great cards to teens in my Youth Group. A great set of goals for young people to shoot for.
