Author: Dom Eugene Boylan

"There is only one spiritual life and that is the life of Christ. And we can never begin to be saints until we realize that all sanctity consists in the replacing of ourselves and our lives by Christ and the life of Christ. He is the life of our souls." Dom Eugene Boylan OCSO

How does a priest become closer to Christ? How can a priest keep his enthusiasm for holiness when his idealistic youth wanes? Few publications on priestly holiness, with the exception of "The Priest's Way to God," successfully bridge the gap between the traditional practices of priestly spirituality and the contemporary contexts in which priests work and live.

"The Priest's Way to God" is a collection of chapters that offers helpful counsel on every aspect of the priestly profession, including prayer, the Holy Mass, and the practice of virtue. It was first published in 1961, just a few years before the author's untimely death. Short but insightful chapters on the theological truths that form the foundation of all spirituality—charity, the presence of the Holy Spirit in our souls, and complete oneness with Christ—come at the book's conclusion. It is a summation of the idea Dom Eugene Boylan tried to convey to both priests and laypeople: that everyone is called to holiness and that, so long as we collaborate with God, we can all achieve it.
