| “The Eucharist unlocks the dynamics of culture, truly perfecting nature, creating the deepest community, and making the goal of human life, God Himself, present on Earth.” This is a powerful statement and one that is full of inerrant Truth. Yet many Catholics display a disappointing lack of faith in Christ’s presence in the Holy Eucharist. Thus, we are in the midst of a much-needed Eucharistic Revival. R. Jared Staudt’s masterfully constructed book, How the Eucharist Can Save Civilization, shows us how our belief and participation in the Holy Sacrifice of the altar is necessary to the salvation of civilization. Only the Eucharist, the source and summit of our Christian life, can save and revitalize our secular culture. Staudt systematically explains this truth through the three parts of his book: In the first part, Staudt explains the foundations of Christian culture in relation to the Eucharist. In the second, he explores our experience of the Eucharist, specifically through the Mass. In the third part, Staudt directly explains how the Eucharist shapes our lives and, by extension, our society. No other book on the Eucharist so aptly describes Its salvific power in relation to our society. |
