THE SIGN OF THE CROSS The Fifteen Most Powerful Words In The English Language by ST. FRANCIS DE SALES

From the young St. Francis de Sale’s heroic efforts to bring Calvinists back to the Faith comes this succinct, eloquent defense of the age-old Catholic practice of making the Sign of the Cross, which sixteenth -century Calvinists denounced as a Popish invention and many Protestants scorn even from today. This gentle jewel of Catholic apologetics traces the origins of the Sign of the Cross back to the Fathers of the Church, to the Apostles before them, and finally to our Lord Himself. Paper.
