Lectio: Eucharist

10 Seasons

Dr. Brant Pitre introduces us to the Sacrament of the Eucharist, following the presentation of the Eucharist offered in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. He explains the biblical roots of our faith in the Eucharist--beginning with Genesis, working through the Gospels, and concluding with Revelation--and he shows how the Eucharist has been a part of God's plan from the beginning of time. Dr. Pitre also provides an explanation of how the Eucharist formed the Apostles and the life of the Church.

Lectio: Eucharist consists of 10 episodes, which have been divided into shorter segments to make it easier to view.
