Produktbeschreibung

This book tackles issues related to the Catholic ministerial priestly formation of students studying theology. Specifically, it delves into examining the personal growth and religious commitment of theology students at St. Dominic's Seminary, Lusaka, Zambia. This piece of work gives insights as regards the importance of personal growth in the life of seminarians and shows the different dimensions of personal growth that should be looked at during the process of priestly formation. The work also highlights the religious aspect of students' life for the priesthood and how they should cultivate and promote their spiritual lives as they endeavour to grow in their religious commitment. It is educative to learn that personal growth initiative and religious commitment among seminarians are correlated and thus prompt investments in both personal growth and religious commitment of seminarians. Balanced psychological personality can be enhanced in the seminaries through a special focus on personal growth initiative and religious commitment and subsequently, this will lead to mature, happy, and service-oriented clergy.
