    A Time for Truth
    Living the Call: An Introduction to the Lay Vocation
    • The book explores the significant shift in the Catholic Church since 1965, highlighting the decline of priests alongside a surge in laypeople taking on various ministries. With over 30,000 lay workers now supporting parishes and church institutions, they have assumed administrative roles, allowing priests to concentrate on their spiritual responsibilities. Additionally, lay teachers have come to dominate Catholic schools, outnumbering traditional religious educators significantly. This unprecedented reliance on laypeople marks a transformative period in the Church's history.
