The Fatal Opulence Of Bishops: An Essay On A Neglected Ingredient Of Church Reform (1901) is a thought-provoking book written by Hubert Handley. The author delves into the issue of the luxurious lifestyles of bishops in the Church and how it affects the reform process. The book highlights the significant impact that the lavish lifestyles of bishops have on the Church's image and the congregation's perception of the Church's values. Handley argues that the Church's focus should be on the spiritual welfare of its members, and the bishops should lead by example by living a simple life. The author provides historical evidence of how the Church's reputation has been tarnished by the opulence of bishops throughout history. The book is a call to action for the Church to prioritize spiritual growth over material wealth and to reform its practices accordingly. Overall, The Fatal Opulence Of Bishops is a compelling read that challenges the Church to re-evaluate its values and practices.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
