Real Presence

Beautiful book that helps understand THE REAL PRESENCE and know that this is not a joke.

Great, Informative Read

This book is not a super-easy read as others have mentioned, but I got it as a gift when I was in highschool and didn't have a super-hard time with it. It is historical and spiritual, and if you are interested in finding out more about Adoration of the Eucharist, this is a great book for you.I recommend this book for people aged 16+, just because of the difficulty, and younger teens might not be as interested in the historical/liturgical aspects of the book.

Great book to learn about Eucharistic devotion

This book is an intense and detailed look into Eucharistic Adoration. I knew nothing about this topic before I read thisbook. It is not a super easy read--I really had to concentrate. It gave a lot of history and information.. I think it would be great for a theology student or someone interested in this catholic tradition. It is very well written, detailed and complete.

Highly Recommended Well Researched Book

This is a well written thoroughly researched book. I recommend it to anyone involved in Eucharistic Adoration.

Excellent resource book with history & references

Well-written book with very good references and documentation. It thoroughly explains historical foundations and evolvement to current practices. This book stands out as being a great information resource on a subject that has many devotional books. It is solidly in-line with the Magisterium as are all of Fr. Groeschel's books. I use it as a teaching tool and as a source for talks on the Real Presence. I highly recommend this book. It will increase your appreciation of the Gift of the Eucharist and the value of adoration.
