| | Description | Pope John Paul II referred to the Holy Eucharist as "the greatest treasure of the Church," and yet even many devoted Catholics have a very limited understanding of this powerful sacrament. This book will change all that. The reader will come away with a completely new awareness that the Eucharist is not just about receiving Communion; it's about transforming your daily life. Deeply based on the Scriptures, the writings of the Saints, and the teachings of our two most recent Popes, this profound and remarkably readable book will introduce you to some of the "hidden" truths of the Eucharist truths that have always been embraced by theologians, saints, and mystics, but have rarely been passed on to the average person in a meaningful way. In 7 Secrets of the Eucharist, these truths are finally made accessible to all, as author Vinny Flynn shows how each reception of Holy Communion can be a life-changing experience. No matter how much or how little you already know about the Eucharist, the "secrets" revealed here will bring you to a new, personal "Emmaus" experience, again and again. Perfect for personal devotion, catechesis, study groups, book clubs, and theological studies, 7 Secrets of the Eucharist will rekindle the "Eucharistic amazement" called for by Pope John Paul II. | |

Will Increase Devotion to the Eucharist May 13, 2010
I admit it. I don't think about the Eucharist as much as I should. I value it immensely, and know the strength it gives, but I do tend to take it for granted sometimes. Vinny Flynn's "7 Secrets of the Eucharist" helps readers to once again be amazed by the mystery of the Eucharist. While no one can fully understand the Eucharist, Flynn uses Scripture, "The Catechism of the Catholic Church", certain Church documents, and the Diary of St. Faustina to help explain it as much as possible. St. Faustina, best known for her role in spreading devotion to Divine Mercy, was also deeply dedicated to the Eucharist and refers to it often in her writings.
Flynn is adamant that there are far more than seven secrets of the Eucharist. Also, these aren't really secrets. As he puts it, "I call them secrets because, for some reason, they don't seem to have been passed on to the average lay person in a way that would enable us to really understand them and incorporate them into our daily lives." The secrets are 1) The Eucharist is Alive, 2) Christ is not alone, 3) There is only one Mass, 4) The Eucharist is not just one miracle, 5)We don't just receive, 6) Every reception is different, and 7) There's no limit to the number of times we can receive (for those of you who are saying "yes, there is!" he is talking about spiritual communion in this section).
"7 Secrets of the Eucharist" is a very valuable little book. The Eucharist is the greatest gift Jesus gave us - his very self. This book provides complex information about this sacrament in a highly readable format. More importantly, it will increase belief and devotion to the Eucharist.

 Secrets of the Eucharist Mar 22, 2010
This is a very easy to read book and thoroughly understandable. I have to say that my impression of it is that it is most suitable for someone just entering the catholic faith. I found it to be pretty elementary....not what a more advanced spiritual reader would be seeking. It would make a wonderful gift for a teenager.
7 Secrets of the Eucharist Feb 14, 2010
Excellent read for Catholics, and NON-CATHOLICS....this book explains just WHO we are receiving and helps to build a relationship with Christ/the Trinity through a better understanding of the focal point of our Holy Mass.
The Eucharistic inspiration Feb 14, 2010
This little book informed me of aspects of the Sacrament of Eucharist of the Catholic church -- things I never knew that helped me to gain new love and experience of the true presence of Christ and the whole concept of the holy sacrifice of the Mass. Truly inspiring reading.
Every Catholic should read this book! Feb 01, 2010
Beautiful and easy to read. Every Catholic should read this book to further understand and love the Eucharist.
