Thanks for coming back! In this episode, I welcome back Father Charlie Bank, OMI. You may remember Father Banks from episode # 77. Father Banks unpacks the Mass with us, step by step. There is a lot of insight shared by Father Banks such as:  

• Why do we bow when Jesus Christ is said/sung during the Gloria?
• Why do we strike our breast during the Penitential Act? (Through my fault…)
• What does Liturgy mean?
• What does consubstantial mean?
• Much much more! 

Your experience in Mass will never be the same after listening to this episode as we learn the “why behind the how.” 

Items mentioned on the Podcast:

USCCB

Heart of the Christian Life: Thoughts on Holy Mass (Book recommended by Father Banks)

The Lamb’s Supper (Book recommended by Father Banks)
