The bestselling author of The Lamb’s Supper continues his thoughtful exploration of the complex relationship between the Bible and the Catholic liturgy in a revelatory work that will appeal to all readers. Scott Hahn has inspired millions of readers with his perceptive and unique view of Catholic theology and worship, becoming one of the most looked-to contemporary authorities in these areas. In Letter and Spirit, Hahn extends the message he began in The Lamb’s Supper, offering far-reaching and profound insights into what the Bible teaches us about living the spiritual life. For both Christians and Jews, the texts of the Bible are not simply records of historical events. They are intended, through public recitations in churches and synagogues, to bring listeners and readers into the sweeping story of redemption as it unfolds in the Bible. Focusing on the Catholic Mass, Hahn describes how God’s Word is meant to open our eyes to the life-giving power of the sacraments, and how the litu..

Since the earlier edition of the small volume was so well received, the basic content of this revised edition will remain the same. The new text is stylistically reworked and necessary corrections were made by Fr. Patrick Connor, SVD to whom I owe a special word of thanks. A number of new stories have been added or replaced, and the questions for reflection were partly reworded. Two new conferences were added: Conversion of St. Paul and Poverty: Option for the Poor. Special thanks goes to Sister Christel Daun, S.Sp.S. for her help in selecting the stories, and for her assistance in so many ways with the new edition. We had some difficulty in selecting a suitable title. Although the book was originally meant for religious and priests, surprisingly it reached many lay people as well who wanted to follow the Lord more dedicatedly. We, therefore, decided to leave the title as it was worded in the second printing of the first edition. ..
