by: Susan Joy Bellavance Imagine the thrill and wonder in the hearts of children as they witness the divine power of Jesus — in the astonished leper, his rags falling to the ground as he touches his smooth face; in the deaf man turning his head toward birdsong; in the bent, crippled woman unfurling to full stature, rejoicing! Through the stirring illustrations of Byron Hamilton and the searing simplicity of author Susan Joy Bellavance, When Jesus Speaks convinces each heart that the divine power of Jesus’ word is real, commanding wind and waves, life and death, and then applies that reality to the mystery of the Eucharist. When Jesus Speaks recalls centuries of the Church’s faithfulness to the Lord truly present in the Holy Eucharist, generation after generation, Mass after Mass, to this very day. "When Jesus Speaks is like a spark that ignites a flame of faith in the Word of God's power to heal, to raise the dead, to calm the storm—and to transform bread and wine into His own Body and Blood! With stark simplicity and artistic beauty, When Jesus Speaks captivates mind and heart and fosters an understanding of and a deep appreciation for the truth of the Eucharist, the Mass, and the Church’s commissioning to make Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament present for all people and all times to come. Foundational and catechetical, When Jesus Speaks will help readers of every age to open their hearts to the timeless and intimate gift that is the Eucharist given to each soul by Christ Himself. Well done!" - Bishop Andrew Cozzens Hardcover, Full Color Illustrations Pages 40 Sophia Institute Press May 2024 ISBN:9798889112426 Show more
