Lord, Have Mercy by Scott Hahn
The author of Hail, Holy Queen and The Lamb's Supper provides a thought-provoking and illuminative study of the Catholic Church's teachings on confession and forgiveness in a detailed explanation of the sacrament of Reconciliation that reveals how it becomes an essential key to spiritual growth.
“Scott Hahn’s Lord, Have Mercy is a thoughtful exposition of the sacrament of confessionWith a lively blend of personal insights and theological acumen, this gifted author gets to the heart of the matter of confession: how it is anticipated in the Old Testament, how it is presented in the New Testament, and how necessary it is for the spiritual life today. I recommend this book to all who desire a clear and elegant presentation of the Church’s understanding of confession.”
-Edward Cardinal Egan, Archbishop of New York
“Scott Hahn has done it again! With a style that is engaging and a content that is challenging, he lays out the scriptural foundation for repentance and confession, the history of the development of the sacrament, a lucid theology, and a practical guide for those who find confession difficult: ‘The more we need it,” he so rightly says, ‘the less we seem to want it.’ This book will be an eye-opener for those who think all they need is to tell God they’re sorry. For all it is a convincing testimony why, like bathing, we need confession often.”
