WHAT HE'S READING
I happened to pick this book up by chance as a gift for a family friend. After reading parts of it I decided to get our own copy. Science and faith work together to give deeper meaning to the source and summit of our faith – the Eucharist.
Available on Sophia Press here and Amazon here.
