Description: Herbert Vorgrimler has written a very clear, scholarly study of the Sacraments. Most Roman Catholics, Anglicans, and Eastern Orthodox Christians accept that there are seven (7) sacraments. Vorgrimler broadens the sacramental base to include the Creation as a sacrament; Jesus, the Christ is a sacrament as is "The Body of Christ" - the Church.
After reading this book I selected it as the basic text book for a course in Sacramental Theology at The Episcopal School for Ministry in the Episcopal Diocese of Missouri. Vorgrimler expands the discussion of the sacraments but seems to limit the sacramental scene to the Roman Catholic Church.
