Description
Bishop Athanasius Schneider explores the current state of the Catholic Mass in this thought-provoking book. He argues that the proliferation of modern abuses is largely driven by humanity's tendency to idolize itself, rather than paying homage to God. Schneider reestablishes the significance of the Mass as the highest form of Christian prayer, enabling Catholics to express their interior belief through exterior worship. He delves into the importance of rubrics, architecture, music, sacred art, and incense in preserving the authenticity of the liturgy. The book also examines how to recollect and listen to God's Word properly, how to surrender to God's will at Mass, and the value of public prayers such as the Liturgy of the Hours and Eucharistic adoration. Through his work, Schneider aims to encourage the revival of these practices, helping Catholics to deepen their spiritual experience during Mass.
