Editorial Reviews

Prolific religion author Macquarrie offers an excellent study of the development of the seven Christian sacraments in relation to one another, to scripture, and to church history. The author discusses the contemporary significance of the sacraments for Christian life, exploring what a sacramental way of being involves and what role each sacrament plays for the different needs and stages of spiritual growth. A fairly detailed treatment of sacramental theology, primarily intended for the clergy and academic readers, although large public libraries may consider purchasing.
