Donkey Priest is a simple, direct guide to priestly life rooted in the wisdom of the saints and the experiences of parish ministry. Drawing on the Gospel image of the donkey that carried Christ into Jerusalem, Father Bob Kilner invites priests to embrace their vocation not as spiritual heroes, but as faithful servants who bear Christ to their people.
Through short, practical chapters on prayer, humility, preaching, the Mass, and the confessional, this book offers concrete, time-tested ways to live the priesthood well. It avoids novelty and instead returns to what has always worked: daily prayer, reverent liturgy, availability for confession, and steady perseverance in ordinary duties.
Written in a clear and pastoral voice, Donkey Priest is especially suited for newly ordained priests or those entrusted with parish leadership, but its message will resonate with any priest seeking renewed clarity, peace, and joy in his vocation.
This is not a book about doing more. It is about becoming faithful in what matters most.
