Book Synopsis How Marriage Became One of the Sacraments by : Philip L. Reynolds
Book excerpt: An indispensable guide to how marriage acquired the status of a sacrament. This book analyzes in detail how medieval theologians explained the place of matrimony in the church and her law, and how the bitter debates of the sixteenth century elevated the doctrine to a dogma of the Catholic faith.
