Diary of a Low-Born Cleric - by Michael Coren (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Provocateur and priest Rev. Michael Coren shares the joyful, heart-rending, and thought-provoking moments that fill his life.

Michael Coren is a very rare figure: he's an ordained priest of the Anglican Church of Canada working in a parish but also an internationally known columnist and bestselling author.

In Diary of a Low-Born Priest, Coren takes us through a year in his life, a diary of the everyday journey of a cleric, who also deals with public controversy and profile as a writer. He chronicles pain, loss, joy, doubt, abuse, poverty, crime, and so many other aspects of what a priest sees every day. But he also offers historical examples, arguments for and against various beliefs, and acute observations of life around him. Like pebbles thrown into a lake, he records the ripples and the waves of the spiritual role he plays in his community.
