Eight practical applications for Holy Water by Catholics are listed after explaining its role in spiritual growth and Christian living. Simple and practical book for every reading level. Some familiarity with Catholicism is recommended but not required. Excellent book with only minor editorial revisions from the original 1909 German text.

Holy Water and Its Significance for Catholics is a short, highly readable explanation of what holy water is and how Catholics can use it. The author reaches back to holy water's Biblical and Patristic roots, with a particular focus on the writings of Tertullian. He then goes on to describe the purpose of sacramentals like holy water and then just how the blessed water does what it does. This is followed by a discussion of how to use holy water and why you should do so.

In short, it has almost anything you ever needed or wanted to know about holy water, all in under 100 pages. Highly recommended for anyone with an interest in the subject.… (more)
