IN VINEA DOMINI is quite an extraordinary book from a very
well-known and well-respected writer in the Archdiocese of
Abuja, Fr. Kenneth Agwu. It is a compelling, well crafted
reflection and attractive literary presentation, that is easy to
digest. I am sure that it will attract the attention and admiration
of many people.
-+John Cardinal Onaiyekan, Archbishop of Abuja (1994 - 2019).

This book is a challenge to us priests, particularly the younger priests,
who have not learnt to explore and make their latent talents available
and beneficent to the public. It is also an anthology of optimism,
perseverance and diligence, written with humility, candour, clarity
and deep sense of responsibility. I am convinced that it will offer
enduring help to our seminarians in their difficult moments,
particularly those whose understanding of the priesthood is not yet
clearly defined. I recommend it as their invaluable companion.
-Rev. Fr. John Okwoeze Odey, Catholic Diocese of Abakaliki.

IN VINEA DOMINI is the fascinating story of one who overcame
obstacles, including a measure of self-doubt, to emerge as a priest
of the Catholic Church, and by dint of focus, commitment, hard
work and a mind set of ongoing formation or continuous learning,
has, with the grace of God, now completed a decade of service in
the Lord's vineyard, and counting. I commend this book, to all, as
indeed I am convinced that every reader will find in this tenth
anniversary reflections of Fr. Kenneth Agwu, a dose of inspiration
and motivation.
- Rev. Fr. George Omaku Ehusani, Executive Director, Lux Terra
Leadership Foundation.

This is a timely book for today's world and her images of the
Priesthood. In this book, Fr. Kenneth Agwu, has seized the
opportunities of grace to eternally express the clarity of his heart,
mind, soul, and spirit about the awesome gifts of the Catholic
Priesthood. I am overwhelmed by the insights of the book and I highly
recommend it for the different degrees of the Holy Orders, Religious,
Seminarians and formation centres, parents of priests and all
admirers and supporters of the Holy Priesthood.
- Rev. Fr. John-Mary Atep, Vocations

Sacred Rights: The Case for Contraception and Abortion in World Religions
As the global population continues to grow, family planning is fast becoming one of the most critical issues facing the planet. While many organizations--most prominently the United Nations--are trying to implement policies that will help curb the population explosion, these measures are frequently blocked by those professing conservative religious beliefs.<br> In many of the world's religions there is a restrictive and pro-natalist view on family planning, and this is one legitimate reading of those religious traditions. As the essays in this volume demonstrate, however, this is not the only legitimate or orthodox view. Seeking to counteract the simplistic idea that all religions are completely antagonistic toward family planning, the authors--all scholar-practitioners of the religions about which they write--present alternative interpretations of religions' views about family planning. Arguing for the existence of equally valid traditions that allow contraception and abortion, they seek to escape the confines of oversimplified either/or, pro-choice/pro-life arguments. Instead, they point the way toward a more open discussion of family planning.<br>Dispelling the notion that the world's religions are uniformly conservative on issues of family planning, the authors show that the parameters of orthodoxy are wider and gentler than that, and that the great religious traditions are wiser and more variegated than a simple repetition of the most conservative views would suggest.
