The Eucharistic Presence - Archbishop Bernard Hebda

In the midst of our Eucharistic Revival, Archbishop Bernard Hebda discusses Newman’s 1838 sermon “The Eucharistic Presence”. His Excellency finds Johannine depth in Newman‘s precise spiritual thought. Like John the Evangelist, Newman leads us to a deeper “awe, admiration and hope” of Christ’s Eucharistic Presence by recognizing that all other miracles of Christ pale in comparison to the love Jesus shows for us in the Eucharist. The Archbishop of St Paul and Minneapolis sees Newman‘s plea for “a thirst for his presence” producing a joy on “hearing that he is to be found under the veil of sensible things” as an aid for our own Eucharistic revival by helping us find our “reward in believing”. To approach Newman's majestic thought it is highly recommended to download the formatted sermon at www.newmanontap.com.
