#12260 Why the Church Introduced the Novus Ordo & Why Have Both Forms - Jimmy Akin

Listen Later

In this episode of Catholic Answers Live, we dive into one of the most debated topics in the modern Church: Why was the Novus Ordo Mass introduced after Vatican II, and how should Catholics view it alongside the Traditional Latin Mass? We explore the historical context, theological intent, and the call for reverence and unity across both forms. Whether you’re attached to the TLM or attend the Novus Ordo, this episode emphasizes mutual respect and liturgical richness.
