From Ignatius Press
Flynn, author of the best-seller, 7 Secrets of the
Eucharist (100,000 copies sold), presents a similar approach to the
Sacrament of Confession in this new book that reveals 7 key "secrets"
or hidden truths about the great spiritual beauty, power and depth of
Confession.
The understanding that many Catholics have of the Sacrament
of Confession is so limited and narrow in its focus that it keeps them from
discovering the real beauty and value of this Sacrament -beauty and value that
even a young child can understand if it's presented properly. For too many
Catholics, Confession is just a means to an end: cleaning us up from sin so we
can receive Communion. But, as Pope Francis tells us, Confession is much more
than "going to the dry cleaner." It's "an encounter with Jesus,
who waits for us as we are."
