Synopsis

Most books about Confession are how-to guides. This one goes deeper, showing us how the Sacrament of Reconciliation can heal us and bring us closer to God. Cardinal Donald Wuerl uses his gift for teaching the faith to discuss how best to examine our conscience, how to ask the Holy Spirit to reveal our sins to us, and why a regular prayer time is crucial in order to get the most out of Confession and grow in our relationship with the Lord. Scriptural examples as well as stories from the saints and from Catholics today help illustrate his points. This book will change your experience of Confession and brings its fruits into your life!

Builds on the successful The Light Is On for You campaign launched by Cardinal Wuerl in his archdiocese and adopted elsewhere.

Will encourage more frequent use of Confession.
