Preparing for a wedding can be a difficult and often stress-filled process. Engaged couples are frequently short on time and more often than not it is the preparation of the wedding liturgy itself that is left to the last minute.

Understanding the Sacraments of Vocation: A Rite-Based ApproachRandy Stice

Paperback, 6 x 9, 160 pages | 978-1-61671-192-4 | Order code: USV $19.95E-book: Google Play, Amazon Kindle, and Apple iBook $15.95

Understanding the Sacraments of Vocation examines the Old Testament foundations, liturgical history, and sacramental theology of the rites of Holy Orders and Matrimony, exploring the way in which the sacraments of vocation affect and influence one’s daily Christian life.

“What do the sacraments have to do with faith? With Jesus? With my life? Anyone who celebrates the sacraments—and anyone who is charged with preaching or teaching about the sacraments—must have clear and compelling answers to these questions today. Fr. Stice gives us essential answers and insights . . . informed by the wisdom of the Church over the centuries.”

—Christopher Carstens, Director, Office for Sacred Worship Diocese of La Crosse, Wisconsin

The Mystery of Marriage: A Theology of the Body and the SacramentDr. Perry J. Cahall

Hardcover, 6 x 9, 512 pages | 978-1-59525-040-7 | Order code: HMM $45

This remarkable study offers a comprehensive explanation of the Catholic Church’s teaching on the Sacrament of Matrimony. Incorporating rich insights from St. John Paul II’s Theology of the Body, Dr. Cahall presents a theology of Marriage that incorporates the biblical, systematic, pastoral, and historical traditions that have shaped our understanding of this sacrament.

“At first glance I thought Professor Cahall’s book would simply offer a theology of Marriage in light of Saint John Paul II’s Theology of the Body. Had it only done this—and it does this beautifully—the book would be a major contribution. But this marvelous feast of a book also offers . . . a detailed history of the development of the theology of Marriage from the Old Testament through the twentieth century, . . . a full-fledged and persuasive sexual ethics, . . . and one of the best presentations I have ever seen of the unique Marriage of Mary and Joseph. . . . This book should be a wedding gift to each Catholic couple.”

—Matthew Levering, phd, The James N. and Mary D. Perry Jr. Chair of Theology, University of St. Mary of the Lake
