Description:... Enfolded in Christ is a book about priesthood with a difference. Instead of focusing on ministry, it helps priests develop a healthy spiritual life to sustain them through the demands of their calling.

John-Francis Friendship draws on extensive experience in pastoral supervision and spiritual direction to help priests cultivate spiritual practices and habits that will nurture a priests's relationship with Christ, sustain holy living and foster personal well-being. 

In a series of reflections based on the charges in the ordination service, he explores a range of topics including:

• Growing in holiness 
• The call to wholeness 
• Keeping prayer fresh 
• Preparing for the Eucharist 

• Healthy relationships
