About This Book
A parish rector reassesses his ministry as he confronts social inequality, doctrinal doubt, and intimate relationships within his congregation. He observes conservative parishioners and reform-minded figures, holds frank conversations about belief and ritual—most notably a parishioner troubled by the virgin birth—and debates how Christian teaching should inform public life. Conflicts between traditional authority and calls for social responsibility create moral dilemmas and interpersonal strains that test faith, leadership, and the church's role in addressing modern social concerns.
