They will also be available from BookLocker in the near future. The Pastor’s Inferno How do you amend your life after you betray all that has been important to you? Some novels are designed to distract the reader from his or her daily routine. Others are meant to lead the reader to understand the human condition a little better. This is a novel of the second sort. The Pastor’s Inferno is a fictional account of a priest’s search for redemption after abusing a young parishioner. Father John Spador learns to confront his behavior and its consequences through coming to understand his motivations and relationships. His story shows how an otherwise ordinary person can become lost to his demons and then work toward redefining his life. This account offers the rest of us a chance to think about how we can address our own failings. The Pastor’s Inferno is an insight into the mind of an abusive priest and explores why a priest might become abusive as well as what he might do about it. This story should have special importance for Catholic priests, the laity and hierarchy as well as those of other faiths touched by clergy sexual abuse. It will also appeal to readers interested in understanding the darker side of the human condition and how to approach it.
