A Modern Guide to Indulgences is a practical and pastoral guide to the Church’s teaching on indulgences. It begins with an explaination of the Church’s doctrine on indulgences, and offers a description and commentary on the major indulgences recognized by the Church. Readers will appreciate Dr. Peter’s ability to expand upon this often misunderstood teaching while helpfully and pastorally linking indulgences to the Church’s teachings about sin, reconciliation, and sacramental confession.

The  perfect companion to both the post-conciliar and revised  editions of the Enchiridion, which offer almost no commentary --other than official texts--and few answers to practical application; A Modern Guide to Indulgences is a must read book for anyone preparing to enter a ministerial role in the Church or anyone interested in learning more about the Church’s understanding of the grace offered to us through indulgences.
