Be a Prophet: Speaking Truth to a Church in Crisis

By: Clayton, Lee R.

Every Christian is called to speak truth with love-but how?

In Be the Prophet: Speaking Truth to a Church in Crisis, Lee R. Clayton unveils the often-overlooked prophetic dimension of the baptismal vocation. Drawing from Scripture, St. Thomas Aquinas, and the Dominican tradition, this book rekindles the truth that every believer-not just clergy or mystics-is called to proclaim truth with courage and charity.

Readers will explore:

How Baptism unites the priesthood and prophetic mission in every soul.The history of prophecy from Adam to Christ and its renewal in the Church today.The interior formation of a prophetic heart through prayer, study, silence, and courage.How the Holy Spirit empowers ordinary Christians to speak with extraordinary grace.Why silence in the face of falsehood betrays the call to charity.

Deeply theological yet pastorally accessible, Be the Prophet is both a rallying cry and a contemplative guide for a world hungering for truth. This book will challenge, inspire, and ignite those who seek to live their Baptism as a bold proclamation of Christ.
