Product Description:
Pope John Paul II referred to the Holy Eucharist as 'the greatest treasure of the Church,' and yet even many devoted Catholics have a very limited understanding of this powerful sacrament. This book will change all that. The reader will come away with a completely new awareness that the Eucharist is not just about receiving Communion; it's about transforming your daily life.
Deeply based on the Scriptures, the writings of the Saints, and the teachings of our two most recent Popes, this profound and remarkably readable book will introduce you to some of the 'hidden' truths of the Eucharist truths that have always been embraced by theologians, saints, and mystics, but have rarely been passed on to the average person in a meaningful way. In 7 Secrets of the Eucharist, these truths are finally made accessible to all, as author Vinny Flynn shows how each reception of Holy Communion can be a life-changing experience.
No matter how much or how little you already know about the Eucharist, the 'secrets' revealed here will bring you to a new, personal 'Emmaus' experience, again and again. Perfect for personal devotion, catechesis, study groups, book clubs, and theological studies, 7 Secrets of the Eucharist will rekindle the 'Eucharistic amazement' called for by Pope John Paul II.

(John 6:51-56). Here, then, is the single most famous metaphysical conundrum in all of Christian theology: When the Twelve ate the flesh of Jesus that night, and drank his blood, was that literal? or only figurative?

I love the book. But I'm sure the author knows more secrets. It's interesting that a book like this should eminate from a layman.-- Not surprising but interesting. Give us more, more more.
