Overview

Dom Virgil Michel (1890-1938) was a Benedictine of the Midwest, U.S.A, who, under the pressure of being on time, was deeply aware that Catholic spirit had to express itself in everyday living if it were to be truly authentic. Virgil Michel faces the New Age with an apologetics for a renewed Catholic sacramental theology. While listening to him in his pre-Vatican II setting, this work enjoys the further advantage of observing the tenets of the Catholic faith within theological developments and philosophical currents of the final years of the Second Millennium. Virgil Michel's theology of Baptism and Confirmation presented both the intimate personal experience of supernatural life, but also the ecclesial experience of it, in the attempt of restoring vitality to Catholic worship.
