The Sacrament of Eucharist (Lex Orandi (Unnumbered))
The merits of this work are many and significant: the research is first-rate; the text is accessible and informative; and the gift and challenge of the Eucharist for the Christian community emerge unambiguously. The theology developed in the first half of the book—from Christology to ecclesiology, and on to liturgical theology—is a fine synthesis; it also lays an excellent foundation for the study of the Eucharistic celebration in the book’s second half. This is a text that RCIA groups in parishes, no less than diocesan presbyterates, could explore to their great enrichment.
