An illuminating, reassuring explanation of the Catholic Church's
teachings on confession and forgiveness by the bestselling author
of "The Lamb's Supper" and "Hail, Holy Queen.
"Jesus told his first clergy, "If you forgive the sins of any, they
are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained." In
"Lord, Have Mercy," Scott Hahn explores the sacrament of
reconciliation and shows why it is the key to spiritual growth,
particularly in these times of intense anxiety and uncertainty.
Drawing on the history of ancient Israel, the Gospels, the writings
of the early Church, and the lives of the saints, Hahn reveals the
living, scriptural heart of the Church's teachings on penance,
forgiveness, and reconciliation. It is a story that begins with the
sin of Adam and Eve, continues in the biographies of Moses, King
David, and the Apostle Peter, and reverberates in the lives of
believers today. Hahn presents the Catholic and biblical
perspective on sin and mercy, elucidating in clear, easily
understood language the true import of Jesus' simple, yet profound
promise-"I am the door; if anyone enters by Me, he will be saved
(John 10:9).
Like Hahn's earlier books, "Lord, Have Mercy" offers thoughtful,
authoritative insights into controversial issues and disputed
doctrines in a manner that will enlighten lay readers yet is
thorough enough for scholars to appreciate. More than just a Bible
study, it is a guide for the perplexed, providing practical advice
and inspiration that will help readers come to a deeper knowledge
of themselves and of Jesus through the sacrament of penance.
