In a warm and personal style, Raymond Lucker shares a wealth of prayerful reflections from a bishop's point of view. Bishop Lucker hopes that through these writings people might come to see 'that bishops are human.' These essays are pastoral letters in which Bishop Lucker shares insights, concerns, consolations and struggles he has experienced in his life's attempt to be true to his own understanding of his vocation. These inner thoughts are rich nourishment for our own spiritual growth.
