Ralph Weimann Boeken

"Drawing from Scripture and the Tradition of the Church, Fr. Ralph Weimann balances the natural and the supernatural, reason and revelation in explaining how sacramentals developed in the Church and their definition in modernity. Fr. Weimann provides an extensive framework about exorcisms and their significance as a sacrament, noting that when faith weakens, there is often a rise in superstition and the occult."
