RETURN | Repentance and Confession: Return to God and His Church
Best book I’ve found on this topic. Answered all my questions on the Orthodox Confession: especially for those –like me– who are new to Orthodoxy. Coming from a Protestant background, the idea of confession seemed strange, unnatural, unnecessary and even scary… but this little 86 page book explained it all to me in terms I could understand.
‘Return’ is a great title for this little book… a RETURN to God and His Church through the process of repentance and confession. This is what confession on a regular basis does… it helps you return to the path when you stray off into the weeds.
Back Cover:
- What is sin and which are sin’s fruits?
- What is repentance and what isn’t it?
- How do we prepare for confession?
- How do we confess?
- What is the meaning of penance?
- What is the relationship of repentance with the mystery of the Divine Eucharist?
This small book, in simple words attempts to answer these as well as other questions and helps to offer a RETURN back to the original attitude and to a correct approach to the great and philanthropic mystery of repentance and confession.
