Do you REALLY believe?
During Mass, a priest in Lanciano, Italy
doubted that the bread and wine
really became
the body and blood of Jesus.
Before his eyes, the host was encircled in flesh
and the wine turned to blood.
A priest in Regensburg, Germany
also doubted the Real Presence
of Jesus in the Eucharist.
As he lifted the chalice during the Consecration,
the crucifix came to life
and Jesus took the chalice out of his hand.
A woman in Paris, France stole the Blessed Sacrament
and gave it to an unbelieving pawnbroker
in exchange for a dress.
The pawnbroker took out a knife
and began stabbing the Host.
Great streams of blood
gushed from the knife wounds in the Host.
Eyewitness accounts.
Scientific investigations.
Physical evidence.
36 major Eucharistic miracles.
This heart-stopping, gut-checking book

They remain a testimony by God to one of the most basic truths
and most exalted mysteries of the Catholic religion:
"And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us"
- not only in Bethlehem,
but in every Catholic tabernacle and
in every faithful Catholic heart."
