Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Ecclesiastical Review, Vol. 44: A Monthly Publication for the Clergy; January June, 1911
But all the efficiency of these two forces depends on the seminary. The priest will be what it has made him, or suf fered him to make himself; and the laity will be what he is, - with rare exceptions. AS a general rule, then, it may be reasonably expected that if the seminary turn out spiritual minded, apostolic priests, they, on their part, will make the laity entrusted to them a Chosen generation, a kingly priest hood, a holy nation, a purchased people, who will by their lives proclaim to the world the Virtues of Him who has called them out of darkness into His marvelous light. The self denying lives and labors of such priests will bring back the golden days of the Galilean Ministry; but they must have been raised in Nazareth, and fasted and prayed and passed through the furnace of temptation in the Desert.
