Parish priests are by far the biggest influence on men who enter seminary. But realistically, how can busy priests help young men discern the priesthood, especially guys who've never expressed any interest?This booklet proposes a disarmingly simple approach: five 15-minute phone calls with regular guys in your parish, discussing what it's actually like being a priest. It's a field-tested method that's both efficient and effective-realistic for time-strapped parish priests, and also hugely influential for young Catholic men who may have a priestly vocation.

Archbishop Dolan clearly sets forth what it takes to be a Catholic priest in the Third Millennium. Whether he is stressing the necessity of regular Confession and the need to celebrate daily Mass and say the Liturgy of the Hours or discussing priestly celibacy in frank, realistic terms, he emphasizes true priest identity by presenting a life worth living, a life worth sharing, a life worth offering up to the Father through Christ and in the Holy Spirit. Pastoral, practical, and thoroughly Catholic, Priests for the Third Millennium will renew the joy of being Catholic in the heart of seminarians, priests, and the people they serve.
