“This is a very interesting work. The author explores important images that have been used to define the office of the priest arguing that in many cases these images have further mystified the priestly office and in a political context where political domination has been the rule, priest have ignored their prophetic office and not been effective servants of God and the people. This is a welcomed voice on the issue of church leadership at a time when Africans need to deal with concrete realities than continue to perpetuate mystifications that has distanced the clergy from their lives.”
