520 $aThe author makes an astounding claim for the sign of the Cross: This simple, familiar gesture is actually a powerful prayer. When we trace it on our body, we stir up the new life of the Spirit that we received in Baptism. We affirm our identity as Christians, resist the lure of evil, join ourselves with Christ, and engage the power of the Holy Spirit to deal with daily problems. All these blessings can be ours when we make the sign of the Cross with prayerful respect and intelligent understanding of what it signifies. The author explains how you can receive immeasurable blessings by making this ancient sign a gateway to a renewed experience of God.
