THE BREAD OF GOD

Cost Rs. 200

THE BREAD OF GOD
This book celebrates the life-giving Eucharist-the imaginative means by which our thinking and our lives are transformed in Jesus Christ. Even as the Eucharist is the sacrament of Christ’s real presence in the midst of the Church, it is also the gift that nourishes our bodies and souls with the food and drink of eternal life. It is the sustaining inspiration by which we grasp the mysteries of faith as they gain momentum, direction, and shape in our lives.
A celebration of the centrality of the Eucharist in a life of faith, The Bread of God examines the way of thinking that links us to the mind of Christ, the mind of the Church, and to each of us in the body of Christ. Early chapters of the book plumb the meaning of the Eucharist as found in the Scriptures and lead us full circle to find the true meaning of the Scriptures in the Eucharist. Further chapters discuss more deeply the characteristics of the Eucharist: sacrifice, communion, judgement, praise, and love. Father Kelly concludes the book with a poetic meditation on the power of the Eucharist to make us truly present to the life of the world and to live that presence as generously as we can.
If you are looking to celebrate a truly living Eucharist – one that deepens and broadens your experience of the paschal feast – The Bread of God is a beacon for the possibilities of our Christian faith.
