Biblical Way Of Praying The Mass

$15.95

We love the Mass. We know it to be, as Vatican II teaches, the “source and center” of our Christian life. But we also wish we prayed it more fully, more from the heart, that we benefitted more from it, that it blessed our day more deeply. At times, its prayers, hymns, readings, even the Consecration and Communion, seem, more than we wish, to pass us by without touching our hearts in the way we desire. Two hundred years ago, a dedicated priest, Venerable Bruno Lanteri, shaped a biblical way of praying the Mass that transforms presence at Mass into a true prayer of the heart. For each part of the Mass, Venerable Bruno chooses a biblical person and invites us to live that part of the Mass with his or her sentiments. In this book, Father Gallagher shares this rich approach to praying the Mass. Chapter by chapter, he explores each biblical figure and how his or her heart reveals a way to pray the corresponding part of the Mass. Each chapter includes spiritual exercises that prepare the reader to pray that part of the Mass. Images from classic Catholic art provide a visual accompaniment to these exercises of prayer. This book help you pray the Mass from your heart-and no greater gift can be given in the spiritual life.
