Publisher Description
AS SEEN ON EWTN • Bestselling author Scott Hahn “leaves the reader with a whole new appreciation of the Mass” (CMN Trade Journal) as he unveils the mysteries of the most familiar of Catholic rituals.
Of all things Catholic, there is nothing that is so familiar as the Mass. With its unchanging prayers, the Mass fits Catholics like their favorite clothes. Yet most Catholics sitting in the pews on Sundays fail to see the powerful supernatural drama that enfolds them. Pope John Paul II described the Mass as “Heaven on Earth,” explaining that what “we celebrate on Earth is a mysterious participation in the heavenly liturgy.”
The Lamb’s Supper reveals a long-lost secret of the Church: The early Christians’ key to understanding the mysteries of the Mass was the New Testament Book of Revelation. With its fantastical imagery, mystic visions of heaven, and end-of-time prophecies, Revelation mirrors the sacrifice and celebration of the Eucharist.
Written in clear, direct language, Scott Hahn’s beautiful book will help you see the Mass with new eyes, pray the liturgy with a renewed heart, and enter into the Mass more fully, enthusiastically, intelligently, and powerfully than ever before.
Customer Reviews
The Lamb’s Supper
I purchased the Audio - it was great. i will listen to it again and again, it was that good. i was raised a Roman Catholic, but when they Roman Church started bringing in distractions i surched for a Catholic Church that still had the Adoration and focus on Christ. I found it hard to find - but then i found the Byzantine Church. I called and spoke to the priest and he assured me that the Byzantine Church was under the umbrela of the Roman Church. The reason i gave this brief history of myself was because this book, The Lambs Super explained exacly how I felt, Heaven on Earth.
The fist time I attended a Liturgy with my children - I thought I heard Angels singing. I have suggested to our preist to start a book club and to have this book, The Lambs Supper as the first book. I also purchased the Study guide. Great Book, Great Author and the person reading the book did a great job.
