Signs Of New Life: Homilies on the Church's Sacraments

• Signs Of New Life: Homilies on the Church's Sacraments
• Fourteen homilies by Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI) on each of the Seven Sacraments

At life's many crossroads, the Sacraments of the Church continually bring people into contact with the saving work of God: Baptism, Confirmation, Confession, Holy Eucharist, Matrimony Holy Orders, Anointing of the Sick.

The celebrations of the Church always offer an opportunity to announce the faith and deepen our understanding of it. Signs of New Life gathers a selection of fourteen homilies by Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI) on each of the Seven Sacraments, as well as an additional two texts on the theme of the Church more broadly.

Ratzinger endeavored as a theologian to develop an under- standing of the Sacraments in new ways and to make fruitful the participation of others in the celebration of them. Many of his homilies refer to individual Sacraments and connect them with a profound interpretation of Scripture and of the Christ event. The Scriptural passages interpreted in each homily are listed at the start, so that this volume can also be used for Scriptural meditation and spiritual reading.

This book is intended to help us grasp more profoundly the essence of the Church and to aid us in celebrating and pro- claiming the Sacraments as that which they truly are: signs of the new life in Christ.
