This empirical study explores how the sampled priests understand
their priesthood. Chris A. Fallon reviews Liverpool's history of
expansion and decline, which has left fewer and older priests
serving fewer active Catholics and an undiminished number who still
require baptisms, first communions, marriages and funerals. It
contrasts the models of priesthood found in Liverpool with American
studies of the cultic and servant leader models of priesthood,
taking into account the theological viewpoints and personality
profiles of the individuals who took part.
