Flynn, author of the best-seller, 7 Secrets of the Eucharist (100,000 copies sold), presents a similar approach to the Sacrament of Confession in this new book that reveals 7 key "secrets" or hidden truths about the great spiritual beauty, power and depth of Confession.

The understanding that many Catholics have of the Sacrament of Confession is so limited and narrow in its focus that it keeps them from discovering the real beauty and value of this Sacrament -beauty and value that even a young child can understand if it's presented properly. For too many Catholics, Confession is just a means to an end: cleaning us up from sin so we can receive Communion. But, as Pope Francis tells us, Confession is much more than "going to the dry cleaner." It's "an encounter with Jesus, who waits for us as we are."

In his years of speaking all over North America, Flynn saw that many Catholics have this limited appreciation of Confession, and the urgent need for clear teaching about this great Sacrament. If you have not yet experienced Confession as a wonderful, personal encounter with Christ; if you do not yet look forward to going to Confession with the same eagerness and expectation with which you receive Holy Communion, this book is for you. It will be a whole new way of going to Confession, inviting you to begin an exciting personal journey to healing and holiness. It may change your life.

Vinny Flynn is a well-known Catholic author, speaker, singer and musician who speaks and sings all over North America. His other popular books include 7 Secrets of the Eucharist and 21 Ways to Worship. 

Praise for 7 Secrets of Confession:

"Vinny Flynn shows why confession of our sins is integral to evangelizing. Only when we recognize our sinfulness do we begin to appreciate the infinite goodness of the Lord. Only when we have experienced God's forgiveness are we free to take up the mission of the Church. 7 Secrets of Confession gets to the heart of discipleship."
- Cardinal Francis George, O.M.I., Archbishop of Chicago

"Confession has been called the Sacrament of the New Evangelization. It is the sacred encounter with Christ where we experience God's mercy and forgiveness. Vinny Flynn helps make even more accessible this beautiful sacrament of healing. Those who read this short but insightful book should be able to approach the Sacrament of Confession with greater love, fervor and gratitude and come away convinced that they are not only forgiven but truly healed and liberated. 7 Secrets of Confession is a helpful tool in the ongoing challenge of the New Evangelization. I am happy to recommend it to every Catholic and confessor."
- Cardinal Donald Wuerl, Archbishop of Washington D.C.

"Vinny Flynn's ‘7 Secrets' are like seven explosions that blow away the obstacles keeping us from the Sacrament of Mercy. If you've ever dragged your feet on the way to confession, gotten discouraged about confessing the same sins over and over, or wondered how your confessions could be more fruitful, then you'll love this book. It turns what many see as a tiresome obligation into a precious, longed-for encounter with the Lord."
- Fr. Michael Gaitley, MIC, Author, 33 Days to Morning Glory

"Simple and clear, yet profound, this is a book which should be found in every Catholic home and on the book shelf of every confessor and director of souls."
- Fr. Peter Damian Fehlner, S.T.D., Author, St. Maximilian Kolbe: Martyr of Charity

"I greatly admire the writings of Vinny Flynn. You are going to love his latest gem, 7 Secrets of Confession! In an age in which the Sacrament of Reconciliation is often misunderstood and even ignored, this book offers invaluable insights. I will definitely be recommending it to the many people I meet as I travel and speak."
- Fr. Donald Calloway, MIC, Author, Under the Mantle

"Vinny Flynn is my favorite Catholic writer, bar none. In 7 Secrets of Confession, he addresses the most misunderstood sacrament of the Church, and his readers will never look at confession the same way again. Taking the intimidation factor out of this great sacrament, he brings it into new relevancy for today's Catholics and helps us realize that confession is not something we ‘have to do;' it's something we ‘get to do.'"
- Felix Carroll, Author, Lost, Loved, Found: 17 Divine Mercy Conversions
