After the liturgy was in place, Bishop Leadbeater kept writing. The result was Science of the Sacraments, a book that explains in great detail how each part of the liturgy took shape.

It keeps the liturgy in focus: ordered in its structure and precise in its symbolism.

While not an official document of the Universal Catholic Church, this book is the thread that connects the inner grace with its outward form.
