Book Overview
This book invites the readers either to discover or to increase their understanding of Catholicism, one of the cornerstones of Western culture. The symbols of the Catholic Church are at once human and divine, material and spiritual, for they are the very incarnation of the Word of God. Here Father La Gall examines the people at the heart of the church, its saints and biblical figures, the sacraments, songs, gestures and vestments as well as sacred objects and the church's liturgical calendar.

The meaning of symbols
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
Book is very nicely printed, beautiful pictures and information about major symbolism such asd what is Tabernacle, what is sacred vestments, why they dress green or pink, what is confirmation, what is anointing, etc. etc. Nothing probably new for practicing Catholic but very informative for non catholic or non-christian.
Perfect pictures

The book has the most fabulous pictures. They're not only of high-quality but also big in size showing details. The articles are of great assistance to the Catholics as well as the non-Catholics.
