By Fr. Michael E. Giesler
This Guidebook for Confessors was written to help Catholic priests appreciate better the beauty and power of Confession and to administer it more effectively to the faithful. Beginning with the Gospel call to holiness for all souls, it points out ways for confessors to serve the faithful by helping them to acknowledge their sins and to confess them sincerely.
Among other features, the book includes:
Rev. Michael E. Giesler's Guidebook for Confessors draws ideas from the long and proven tradition of holy and effective confessors in the Catholic Church, along with spiritual insights of saints such as John of the Cross, Philip Neri, John Vianney, and Josemaría Escrivá. In addition, insightful quotations from the recent writings of Popes John Paul II and Benedict XVI are offered.
Rev. Michael E. Giesler, a priest of the Opus Dei Prelature, graduated from the University of Notre Dame and obtained his doctorate in theology from the University of Navarre, Spain. He has written three books of historical fiction set in the early Christian period of Rome: Junia, Marcus and Grain of Wheat, all published by Scepter.
