Paperback. Condition: Good. Sacrament of Mercy ? A Spiritual and Practical Guide to Confession (1997) by Thomas Weinandy ? Condition: Good (Crappy Old Books) Confession: it?s not just whispering into a wooden booth while trying to remember exactly how many times you lost your temper in traffic. In Sacrament of Mercy (Pauline Books and Media, 1997, ISBN: 0819869929), theologian Thomas Weinandy offers both a spiritual reflection and a practical handbook on the Catholic sacrament of reconciliation. He digs into what confession really is: an encounter with mercy, an act of honesty, and yes, occasionally a test of memory. With clarity and pastoral warmth, Weinandy explores why it matters, how to prepare, and what it can do for your soul (spoiler: quite a lot). This is not a finger-wagging manual but a guide written to encourage rather than frighten. It?s about the healing side of confession, the grace of forgiveness, and the surprising freedom that comes from naming your faults out loud. Whether you?re a seasoned penitent, a nervous first-timer, or just someone who likes reading about other people?s spiritual practices, it?s a thoughtful and accessible book. As for this particular copy: it comes from the forthright shelves of Crappy Old Books , and it?s rated Good . Which means: the cover shows some light wear (a crease here, a scuff there?call them venial blemishes rather than mortal ones), the spine is firm, and the pages are clean though gently tanned by time. No margin notes in Latin, no telltale fingerprints from holy water, no papal seals lurking inside?just a well-kept, fully intact book, ready to accompany you on your spiritual spring-cleaning. In short: Sacrament of Mercy is a clear, compassionate guide to one of the oldest spiritual practices in Christianity. This copy is in Good condition: seasoned, sturdy, and very much absolved of major defects. Another quietly edifying find from Crappy Old Books, where even guides to confession come with nothing more than forgivable scuffs. Seller Inventory # 4472
