Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Priest as Confessor, Vol. 6 Some apology may well seem to be needed for a book on hearing confessions which is in no sense a treatise, but confessedly elementary. Hearing confessions is admittedly a work which calls for a scientific equipment on the part of the confessor. But there are matters in connection with the exercise of this ministry, some of them in themselves small, with which a scientific treatise could not be expected to deal. The traditional method of hearing confessions is based on the practical experience of the Church, and much of this is not to be found in books. And many of our difficulties in England arise from the fact that we have largely lost touch with the living tradition of the Church. Priests often find their way gradually to a fulness of Catholic faith and practice when they have been brought up in an uncatholic atmosphere, and ordained with too little knowledge of their position or duties as Catholic priests. They are led to make their own confessions, and then to hear the confessions of the faithful, without any but the slightest possible acquaintance with the practice. As parish priests they cannot well avoid hearing confessions until they have equipped themselves with a thorough knowledge for the task.
