The Busy Pastor's Book on Matrimony
"The Busy Pastor's Book on Matrimony" is a practical and systematic guide written by Canon P. Durieux to assist clergy members in the administration and celebration of the sacrament of marriage. Designed as a functional manual for priests navigating the intricacies of parish life, the work offers a clear overview of the theological, liturgical, and legal requirements surrounding holy matrimony. The text addresses a wide range of essential topics, including the canonical impediments to marriage, the necessary spiritual preparation for the couple, and the specific procedures for the wedding rite itself.
By distilling complex ecclesiastical laws into an accessible format, Canon Durieux provides pastors with the tools needed to manage their duties with both efficiency and pastoral care. The work serves as an important bridge between formal church doctrine and the practical realities of ministry, ensuring that the sanctity of the union is upheld in accordance with established traditions. This volume is an invaluable resource for scholars of church history, canon law, and those interested in the historical development of pastoral practices. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the ecclesiastical standards and social expectations of the early 20th century regarding Christian marriage.
