Pope Benedict - The Grandeur of the Liturgy

The grandeur of the liturgy does not rest upon the fact that it offers an interesting entertainment, but in rendering tangible the Totally Other, whom we are not capable of summoning. He comes because He wills.  (Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, now Pope Benedict XVI)

This month's edition of Christianity Today has a great article on the liturgy.  Check it out.  I hear the book this article is adapted from is pretty good too.  Anybody read it?

Yep -- read it. Great book. In fact, just sent an email to the church recommending everyone get a copy and read it.

Thanks for the link to that CT article on liturgy. This'll be an interesting read.

+ Pax,
