Reviews"Scott Hahn's Lord, Have Mercy is a thoughtful exposition of the sacrament of confession. With a lively blend of personal insights and theological acumen, this gifted author gets to the heart of the matter of confession: how it is anticipated in the Old Testament, how it is presented in the New Testament, and how necessary it is for the spiritual life today. I recommend this book to all who desire a clear and elegant presentation of the Church's understanding of confession." -Edward Cardinal Egan, Archbishop of New York "Scott Hahn has done it again! With a style that is engaging and a content that is challenging, he lays out the scriptural foundation for repentance and confession, the history of the development of the sacrament, a lucid theology, and a practical guide for those who find confession difficult: 'The more we need it," he so rightly says, 'the less we seem to want it.' This book will be an eye-opener for those who think all they need is to tell God they're sorry. For all it is a convincing testimony why, like bathing, we need confession often." -Reverend George T.

Edition DescriptionLarge Type / large print edition
SynopsisAn 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., 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.

Confession the power of salvation !!!
I have yet to read the book, but coming from one of Americas top theologian, I am sure that this is a great book, a book that can make a big difference in your life. If you have ever heard Scoot Hahn speak, you will know that he is a very well-studied theologian, with many years of experience. A convert who found out that the Catholic church is the one and only true church founded by Jesus Christ.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Scott explains so well
Scott is one of the best I know that can explain the Catholic Religion. Usual story, not looking to become Catholic. Always happens to those that are trying to see how wrong God is because so many denominations and only one real Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church founded by Jesus Christ.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
