The novelist Flannery O’Connor once made this comment at a dinner party about the Eucharist: “Well, if it’s a symbol, to hell with it.” Is the Eucharist merely a symbol or is it something far greater?

In this episode we’ll explore those questions and more. By the way, if you like this content please leave a review, some comments and share it with others. Thanks!
