The coronavirus crisis in 2020 has occasioned a further wave of sacramental manipulation, desacralization, and deprivation that has left almost no Catholic in the world unharmed. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese disturbing “signs of the times” call for an unsparing reassessment of policies, practices, customs, and attitudes, along with fresh appreciation for “creative minorities” who are taking a different, more difficult, and more successful path to reverence. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eThe Holy Bread of Eternal Life\u003c\/i\u003e scholar Peter Kwasniewski draws from Scripture, the Fathers of the Church, St. Thomas Aquinas, and the Magisterium to explain the fitting veneration and handling of this “mystery of faith,” the dispositions we need to cultivate for a fruitful reception of the Lord, and the blessings that follow from a life centered on Holy Communion. At the same time, he critiques many novelties in modern Catholic worship and shows why they must be set aside for the health of souls and the Church. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere is far more at stake in today’s debates concerning Holy Communion than what preferences should be indulged or slip-ups tolerated. At stake is whether we truly believe that Jesus Christ is present in the Holy Bread of Eternal Life.","published_at":"2022-06-03T14:52:07","created_at":"2022-06-03T14:52:07","vendor":"Sophia Institute Press","type":"BOOK","tags":["Subject_Eucharist","Type_Books"],"price":1795,"price_min":1795,"price_max":1795,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":true,"all_variant_ids":[39988317651011],"variants":[{"id":39988317651011,"product_id":6693199872067,"product_handle":"the-holy-bread-of-eternal-life","title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"832-0037","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"image_id":null,"available":true,"name":"THE HOLY BREAD OF ETERNAL LIFE - Default Title","options":["Default Title"],"price":1795,"weight":500,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":1,"inventory_management":"shopify","inventory_policy":"deny","inventory_in_cart":0,"inventory_remaining":1,"incoming":false,"next_incoming_date":null,"taxable":true,"barcode":""}],"available":true,"images":["\/\/marytowngiftshop.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/832-0037.jpg?v=1654894232"],"featured_image":"\/\/marytowngiftshop.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/832-0037.jpg?v=1654894232","options":["Title"],"url":"\/products\/the-holy-bread-of-eternal-life"}
