Do you dread this time of year?
Do you wish that you could make it a more grace-filled period? A time of cleansing and strengthening of your relationship with God, as opposed to just a chore - a period to be endured?
Catholic Answers has two products to help you make this Lenten season count. "A Contemporary Adult Guide to Conscience for the Sacrament of Confession" and "Who Needs Confession?" are great resources to help bring you closer to God - through the sacrament of confession. They'll show you not only the absolute necessity of confession for your soul, but also the immense graces you receive from partaking in this sacrament - graces that are sure to make this Lent better than ever.
Fr. Richard Rego's "Guide to Conscience," is the perfect place to start in drawing closer to Christ this Lenten season, and serves as an excellent guide to living out the moral virtues.
In his booklet, Fr. Rego makes the observation that we, as a society, have lost the sense of sin, based solely - or at least in part - on the presumption that nearly everyone goes to heaven.
The reality, however, is that sin is still very much present. we need the sacrament of penance, perhaps now more than ever. But lest he leave his readers discouraged and depressed, Fr. Rego offers a way to overcome the binding that sin has on us.
We do this through the sacrament of reconciliation. And in his book, Fr. Rego gives his readers the tools to make the most reverent and complete confession possible.
The other product you'll receive in the set is the CD "Who Needs Confession?", a presentation by well-known theologian and best-selling author Marcellino D'Ambrosio. D'Ambrosio dispels the many common misconceptions about the sacrament of reconciliation and shows how confession is a liberating gift rather than an embarrassing burden.
This talk has helped many find their way back to confession after years away and has helped others find greater fruitfulness and frequency in their celebration of the sacrament.

A Contemporary Adult Guide to Conscience for the Sacrament
of Confession
By Fr. Richard J. Rego
***************************************************************
In his booklet, "A Guide to Conscience," Fr. Richard Rego uses the knowledge he has acquired from thorough study on the teachings of the Catholic Church to explain what the Church considers sinful behavior, and consequently which behaviors must be confessed.
Fr. Rego begins by defining venial and mortal sins and discusses how best to confess both types of sin. He then takes you on a step-by-step examination of conscience and explains the elements necessary for a worthy confession.
The examination of conscience is incredibly thorough, including everything from sins against God and faith, to sins against ourselves and others. And with each overall topic, Fr. Rego breaks it down into even more specific subheads. Here are just a few of the topics he covers:
* Sins of disobedience
* Sins against human life
* Sins of racism
* Sins against chastity
* And many more
This easy-to-read booklet is the first step in growing closer to Christ. Fr. Rego gives you all the tools necessary to unbind yourself from sin and strengthen your relationship with God.

Who Needs Confession?
By Marcellino D'Ambrosio
**************************************************
In this humorous and inspiring talk, Marcellino D'Ambrosio displays his usual wit and charm as he discusses the beauty of the sacrament of penance, even sharing examples and experiences from his own life.
D'Ambrosio begins with common misconceptions about the sacrament, shared by both Catholics and non-Catholics alike. From there he delves into the importance of confession and why we need it.
"Who Needs Confession?" explains why the sacrament of penance is a gift - a gift that too few people actually receive - and not a burden, as it is so often perceived. D'Ambrosio goes on to discuss the graces received during the sacrament, not the least of which is the freedom and healing that Jesus won for us on the cross.
The talk concludes with a Q&A session, covering everything from how to prepare for confession to how we can inspire others to participate in the sacrament.
After listening to this CD, you'll never look at confession the same way again.

Act now and make this a Lenten season to remember!
