Seeking the Presence of God? October 26, 2005
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
The Lamb's Supper will help you experience that quest. Scott Hahn clearly and rationally reveals the connections between
the Old and New Testaments and how they are completed in the
Eucharistic Liturgy. This book will help you appreciate and
sense the wonder of the presence of God at each Mass. I have given each of my children the gift of The Lamb's Supper and
feel indebted to Scott Hahn for his extraordinary contribution.
 Boring October 23, 2005

my high school is being forced to read this book. we are only in high school and don't even get it. the teachers go about it all wrong, as well as our father. this is such a boring book. i never want to read it again. 16 years olds should not be forced to read a book that even some of our teachers don't understand.
Not just for catholics. October 21, 2005

I wish I could have read this book 20 years ago. Very insightful. An enjoyable read that I know I will read at least a second time. This book has strengthened my faith and my appreciation for the Mass. Every point the author makes is backed up with Biblical references. This book will help any non-Catholic understand what the Mass is about and why it is different from all other Christian services.
 Mass has biblical ties October 14, 2005
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I loved this book for the fact that it demonstrates the origins of the Catholic mass. It is all biblical. The ties between the mass and the book of Revelation were eye opening. This book will only enrich one's understanding and appreciation for the mass.
Worth 10 stars September 20, 2005
9 out of 10 found this review helpful
This book is very concise, easy to read, understand, yet full of sound theology from the Ancient Catholic Church. As a former Presbyterian this book is a Godsend. I had come to believe the same view of Revelation concerning AD 70 and judgment along with the kingdom of heaven being the Church as Dr. Hahn. This is a minority view in Presbyterianism, yet there was never a connection between Revelation and the Mass. Because Presbyterians hold that the Lord's Supper is merely a sign and symbol of the body and blood of Christ but not really the body and blood of Christ given to the believer in the Lord's Supper, no connection was ever made. But when I came to take the Words of Scripture in their plain meaning by faith, the connection was made. And this book relieved all my tensions and was a joy to read for it is exactly what I had believed all along. This is a very imporant work that all Christians should read in understanding proper worship, the Mass (missa)Christ coming to us, and eschatology (the last things). Highly recommended.
