Revelations : The True Story of Rev. Dr.Joseph Leo Theriault (Paperback)

The Rev. Dr. Leo Theriault is not only an Anglican priest, an erstwhile Roman Catholic priest, but a Doctor of Psychology--a recognized authority on psychoanalysis, psychotherapy, and group management. He knows the depth of sex scandals, why they occurred, and why the church is so ill-equipped to control the inequities. Leo may be considered a rogue priest, not in the typical interpretation of a malefactor against the creeds or liturgy of the Church, but as a foot soldier battling the evil manifestation of repugnant morals and mores within. With master's in theology and doctorate in psychology, the Church hierarchy assumed they had a great defender in their midst against accusations. This was not to be. Leo fought child abuse from the podium, the pulpit, the couch, and the courts. The reader possibly will maintain or retain their peace of mind and assurance of their faith. Leo was a Ford Foundation Fellow.
