Theology of Her Body and Theology of His Body are two books in one.

Jesus called the Eucharist by the name Christians subsequently gave to the latter books of the Holy Bible. It was the “New Covenant,” the “New Testament,” in his blood. Christians later extended the phrase to cover the books produced by the apostles and their companions; but they did so because these were the books that could be read at Mass.\n \nThis simple and demonstrable historical fact has enormous implications for the way we read the Bible. In Consuming the Word: The New Testament and the Eucharist in the Early Church, Dr. Scott Hahn undertakes an examination of some of Christianity’s most basic terms to discover what they meant to the sacred authors, the apostolic preachers, and their first hearers. Moreover, at a time when the Church is embarking on a New Evangelization he draws lessons for Christians today to help solidify their understanding of the why it is Catholics do what Catholics do.\n \nAnyone acquainted with the rich body of writing that flows so inspiringly from the hand and heart of Dr. Hahn knows that he brings profound personal insight to his demonstrated theological expertise,” writes Cardinal Donald Wuerl in the foreword to the book.  Consuming the Word continues in that illustrious tradition.  It brings us a powerful and welcome guide as we take our place in the great and challenging work in sharing the Good News.\n\n","brand":"PENGUIN RANDOM HOUSE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31924393836588,"sku":"9780307590817","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0308\/6503\/1212\/files\/ShopifyProductImage-AmazingGrace_40_553a377e-6f94-4e03-8b4d-c58a0906917a.jpg?v=1782242639"},{"product_id":"340","title":"Go to Heaven by Fulton Sheen","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhy is it, asks Bishop Fulton Sheen, that one hears so often the expression Go to hell! and almost never the expression \"Go to heaven!\" Here, at his most penetrating, challenging, and illuminating best is Bishop Sheen with his answer, in a book that breathes new meaning into the truths about heaven and hell, and new life into the concepts of faith, tolerance, love, prayer, suffering, and death.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeginning with \"The First Faint Summons to Heaven,\" Sheen shows how unpopular it is today to be a true Christian, and describes the struggle for living our faith amid the disorders of our times.  Keenly aware of evil in the myriad forms it takes in today's world, Bishop Sheen writes about the constant battle man faces with the \"seven pallbearers of character\" - pride, avarice, envy, lust, anger, gluttony and sloth - linking them with the corrosive forces that never cease in their attacks on the Church and those who earnestly desire to be serious Christians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eGo to Heaven\u003c\/em\u003e, a great spiritual teacher and writer, deeply aware of the human and spiritual conflicts being waged in the world, shows us the way to heaven in a most eloquent book, encouraging the reader to choose heaven now, and to understand the \"reality of hell.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IGNATIUS PRESS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31924395671596,"sku":"GTHP","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0308\/6503\/1212\/files\/ShopifyProductImage-AmazingGrace_29_6d069bf1-1bd4-454f-890b-dfe5c4dfa1d1.jpg?v=1782238492"},{"product_id":"343","title":"MOTHER ANGELICA'S QUICK GUIDE TO THE SACRAMENTS","description":"Join Mother Angelica on a penetrating tour into the sacramental life of the Church.

Prummer's Handbook of Moral Theology was immediately regarded as an international classic. The author's clarity of vision, precision of expression, and humble fidelity to the traditional Catholic moral framework during a period of social upheaval and increasing doctrinal deviation made his manual the standard reference text for generations of clergy, seminarians, and laity.

The many citation errors that plagued earlier editions have been painstakingly corrected, and scores of additional citations have been added from Aquinas's Summa Theologiae, Denzinger's Enchiridion, and the Roman Catechism - three of the author's favorite sources.

This divine humility is the inspiration for Fulton J. Sheen’s telling of the story of Christ’s life in The Eternal Galilean, not as a mere exercise in biography or history, but as an essay in meaning. To address what it means that “the Word became flesh and dwelt among us,” Sheen plumbs the uniquely profound import of Christ’s preaching and miracles, his passion, death, and resurrection, and his threefold character of priest, prophet, and king. The result is not just an instructive account of the life of Jesus Christ, but also a potent antidote to the malignancies of the modern age.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten in the vital spirit of childlike humility, The Eternal Galilean is a passionate, at times poetic, meditation on the mystery of the Son of God, who came “to seek and to save that which was lost.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e* * *\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFulton J.
