The Catholic Mass (Schneider)

Bishop Athanasius Schneider and Aurelio Porfiri contend that many of today's liturgical problems arise when man, rather than God, is placed at the centre of worship. Calling the Mass the Church's greatest prayer, they draw on saints such as Padre Pio and St John Vianney to show how it should be approached.

They explain how rubrics, architecture, music, art and incense lift our hearts to Heaven, and offer practical advice on hearing Scripture, uniting ourselves to Christ's offering and making a good thanksgiving after Holy Communion, as well as on kneeling, genuflecting and worship facing the Lord.
