Reason for the Seasons

Why Christians Celebrate What and When They Do

We can't be joyful without knowing why we should be joyful.That's why celebrated Catholic author James V. Schall, S.J., the the thinking man's priest presents these short but powerful chapters on the most important and joyful feasts of the Church's liturgical year.

With Fr. Schall as your guide, you'll come to understand more deeply the point of each celebration. You'll learn truths about the feasts that will awaken you to real joy, as you consider Christmas, Easter, Pentecost, All Saints' Day, and All Souls' Day, as well as the End Times that we encounter in the last Sundays of the liturgical year.

In a word, this powerful and delightful book affords you an enormous opportunity to consider anew the great truths of our Faith handed down to us by our beloved Mother Church, and that each year are celebrated in Her Feasts.
