This is the second volume of 24 essays originally published by Magnificat (December 2016 - December 2017) that will give you a new appreciation for the Church and her mission in the world. You know the Church supports your sacramental life, but did you know... - Who created the calendar as we know it? - Who developed music notation? - That universities developed from the desire to share knowledge of Christ? - And more! Professor Esolen's captivating style is as entertaining as it is eye-opening. A great book to affirm that God guides his Church!
