Remembering Ron Lewinski
This book includes remembrances of a nationally known priest (Ron Lewinski) by over sixty individuals, both clergy and laity (see list below).
Fr. Lewinski passed in 2017 and had been a priest in the Chicago Archdiocese for 45 years. One contributor knew Lewinski for only a few hours, while others knew him for over six decades.
The book is edited by D.J. Kennebeck, author of The Pivotal Pastor. Ranging in length from two sentences to over four pages, each recollection provides insights into the pastor, priest, or man that the contributor knew.
The collage of verbal portraits gives perspectives on Lewinski's ambition, dedication, sincerity, visionary leadership, sensibility, zealousness, and humor. Contributors include a childhood friend, teachers, parishioners, and fellow clergy from newly ordained priests to Cardinal Blase Cupich, Archbishop of Chicago.
This is not a biography, but tells Lewinski's life story in its own way. The author has excluded page numbers and an index in favor of a Concordance. Thus the reader can identify topics unique to, or shared by, contributors regarding the man that they individually knew.
The book is a companion to The Pivotal Pastor. The author recommends reading the book only a few short "chapters" at a time as a way to appreciate each perspective for its own unique value.
