From the bestselling author of The Lamb's Supper and Signs of Life comes an illuminating work that unlocks the many mysteries of the Catholic sacrament of the Eucharist.

Long before the New Testament was a document, it was a sacrament. Jesus called the Eucharist by the name Christians subsequently gave to the latter books of the Holy Bible. It was the "New Covenant," the "New Testament," in his blood. Christians later extended the phrase to cover the books produced by the apostles and their companions; but they did so because these were the books that could be read at Mass.

This simple and demonstrable historical fact has enormous implications for the way we read the Bible. In Consuming the Word: The New Testament and the Eucharist in the Early Church, Dr. Scott Hahn undertakes an examination of some of Christianity's most basic terms to discover what they meant to the sacred authors, the apostolic preachers, and their first hearers. Moreover, at a time when the Church is embarking on a New Evangelization he draws lessons for Christians today to help solidify their understanding of the why it is Catholics do what Catholics do.

Anyone acquainted with the rich body of writing that flows so inspiringly from the hand and heart of Dr. Hahn knows that he brings profound personal insight to his demonstrated theological expertise," writes Cardinal Donald Wuerl in the foreword to the book. Consuming the Word continues in that illustrious tradition. It brings us a powerful and welcome guide as we take our place in the great and challenging work in sharing the Good News.

Remarkable Quality at that Price!
Flavor Name: Dark Roast, Size: 24 Count (Pack of 1)
Look folks, it’s not Barista Prima or Starbucks, but it’s very inexpensive for what you get. It’s strong and tastes pretty good and will wake you up. What more can you ask for?

Amazon refunded us immediately; we requested credit
Flavor Name: Dark Roast, Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1)
This coffee was great tasting, the aroma was nice, BUT the containers were the problem. Amazon took care of us right away and refunded us; they didn't even want the rest of the coffee pods back or proof of all the ones that burst open in our coffee maker. Here's the only reason we snatched off two stars; the foil tops came loose ( in all the Happy Belly Flavors we purchased) while in our keurig/pod style coffee maker. Grinds were in the cups of coffee and all over the inside of our coffee maker. We decided to try to not waste the coffee after Amazon said to keep or throw away the faulty product, so we, one by one open and pour the Happy Belly ground coffee(s) into a 12 cup coffee maker basket when we have lots of coffee to prepare. The coffee itself is delicious and fresh, but something's wrong with the packaging's foil pod tops on all the types of Happy Belly we bought. Too bad, because it's good coffee, priced at a bargain, it's just too bad the pods are falling apart messy.

Delicious coffee. Had a fabulous price
Flavor Name: Dark Roast, Size: 100 Count (Pack of 1)
I've used several different coffees over the past 12 months, including french press. I find these pods every bit is good or better than the other coffees at 3:00 or four times the cost

Bananas from Amazon! Yes!
During a recent surprise deep freeze on the way, I tried to find bananas and couldn't find them any where and decided just to check on Amazon and there they were! Bananas! I was so happy! And they were good! I have almost gave them a 4 star instead of a 5 star because I usually like to get my bananas a little bit on the slightly still green place so they were last several day. But Amazon didn't know that. They were very fresh and a great value for the money! They were in good condition! I was so pleased! And I would not hesitate to order fruit from Amazon again. They tasted great! Fresh bananas from Amazon! Who would have thought it!
