"They devoted themselves to the teachings of the apostles and to the communal life, to the breaking of the bread and to the prayers" -- Acts 2:42

It is called the "source and summit" of our Catholic faith - The Holy Eucharist. But do we really understand its true meaning? In Fr. Mitch Pacwa's The Eucharist: A Bible Study Guide for Catholics you will see the essential connection between the Eucharist and the Scriptures, and through reflection and discussion you'll learn to apply the principles in your own life.

In this study you will find answers to these questions and more:

Where do we see symbols of the Eucharist in the Old Testament?
How do the Old Testament sacrifices prefigure Christ's sacrifice?
What did Jesus mean when he said "Do this in remembrance of me"?
Why is Jesus called the Lamb of God?
How do we meet Jesus in the breaking of the bread?
Perfect for group or individual study, The Eucharist will change the way you look at the Mass and allow you to meet Jesus as transformed by his gift of life.

For over 2,000 years, the Catholic Church has been celebrating Eucharist as the source and summit of the Christian Faith -- yet it is still one of the most divisive doctrines separating Catholics and Protestants.

An author, lawyer, and leading defender of the Faith, John Salza unpacks this pillar of the Catholic Faith in the same clear, engaging style that has drawn thousands of readers to his other works. Here, Salza demonstrates how, without question, the Eucharist -- as the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ -- is deeply rooted in biblical history.

Whether you are defending, questioning, or exploring the role of the Eucharist in the Catholic Faith, you will come away from The Biblical Basis for the Eucharist with a crystal-clear understanding of what the Church teaches and why, from a Scriptural perspective.Extensively footnoted, yet filled with the passion of a courtroom drama, this book explains the Eucharist and the Mass in fascinating detail:

How the Old Testament sacrificial system was the foundation of the Church's celebration of the Eucharist
How the Mass applies Christ's sacrifice to the faithful through time and space
Why belief in the Eucharist is key to understanding God's nature and His wonderful plan of salvation
...and so much more!

Regardless of your level of knowledge about the Eucharist or the Catholic Faith, The Biblical Basis for the Eucharist will enhance your appreciation for the sacrifice of the Mass and help you to experience a deeper relationship with our Eucharistic Lord.
