A Confessor's Handbook: Revised and Expanded Edition

While I've only read part of the book, and in fact, the first edition, I assume this edition will be very similar. The first edition took an orthodox, but very pastoral and practical approach to administering the sacrament. As an older seminarian, I felt that I knew enough based on my own experience with Confession and my life experiences in general, such that this book would not be necessary. However, My Sacraments professor, who is faithful to the Magisterium, recommended it. I found it to be a "penitent-focused" approach with many practical and pastoral insights into the sacrament. In fact, that is why I decided to purchase the revised edition from Amazon. I am looking forward to adding much valuable information to my already formed, personal database of knowledge of exposure to this sacrament.

Good for both confessors and penitents. Good book; love it

It's a great book well researched and well presented.

good

An excellent handbooks for hearing confessions.

It will be a useful book for the miniatry, which the focus might have been more about the actual sacrament and the healing graces accoiated with the sacrament but over all I would recommend to to a fellow colleague.

Very solid, practical advice.

Amazing!
