That's What They Are in For!: A Pastoral Memoir of a Privileged Profession

This literary effort is one man's testimony about the extraordinary privilege it is to be a clergyperson or priest in a local parish. The vocation of parish pastor has been for Robert Leverenz a most exciting, humbling, fulfilling life. The story following is uniquely his own and he does not write this to bring to bear the destructive dynamic of competition with others. This book is for anyone who is impressed by the ministries of the church or has had disconcerting moments with pastor and parish; it helps one understand the humanity and the divinity embodied in a community of Jesus followers.
