THE EUCHARIST: SOURCE AND SUMMIT OF THE CHRISTIAN LIFE

In this marvelous series, Dr. Scott Hahn shows how the Catholic understanding of the Mystical Body of Christ, embodied in the Church and revealed anew in the Holy Eucharist, is clearly described in the Bible.

Dr. Scott Hahn uses his Protestant Biblical training to demonstrated the centrality of the Holy Eucharist in Christian teaching - where the Catholic Church on earth joins with all creation, in Heaven and on earth, in an eternal hymn of praise.

Beginning with an explanation of the “Real Presence” of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament, he further shows that the Church is supernaturally what She eats: The Body of Christ. Even more intriguing, Dr. Hahn demonstrates how the liturgical celebration of the Jewish Passover meal of the Old Testament, with its culminating action of the fourth cup, was fulfilled by Christ in the Last Supper and on the Cross. With unusual enthusiasm and excitement, Dr. Hahn provides scholarly insights, important metaphorical Bible connections and far deeper meaning that will bring Holy Mass alive for all believing Christians.
