A Great Look at the Sacrament of Reconciliation,
By markz@cheerful.com (New Jersey) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Confession Is Good for Your Soul: Receiving the Mercy of a Forgiving God (Paperback)
This book is an excellent source for rediscovering the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Fr John Arnold deals with a problem that has caused many to abandon the sacrament, that is, since Catholics today are taught confession usually around 7 years old and nothing is said about it later, most adult Catholics have a childish, immature understanding of the Sacrament. I only rated the book 4 stars because I thought that the discussion on History of the Sacrament was insufficient. For a more detailed history of the sacrament I would recommend George A. Mahoney's book Your Sins Are Forgiven You. However I strongly recommend Confession is Good for Your Soul for any Catholic who wants to discover the true meaning of the Sacrament and make better use of it, as well as to any non-Catholic who wants to know why Catholics confess their sins to a priest.
