All of the liturgical colors, postures, sounds, and smells that bombard us are there for a reason. The five senses participate in this very physical, very spiritual act of worship. Dr. Hahn takes Holy Mass from its place in the “big picture” of covenant theology and salvation history, and breaks it into bite size pieces for everyone to understand and enjoy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBeginning by pointing out the inner logic of the various parts of Holy Mass, Dr. Hahn explains in simple, yet comprehensive detail, the many parts and elements of Holy Mass—from the entrance song, to the sign of the cross, to the final blessing and dismissal.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eProviding Scriptural support and references, he explains how each part of the liturgy transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary, the physical into the spiritual, the earthly into the heavenly. And best of all, you won’t need a degree to figure it out—he never gets bogged down in heavy theology.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDr. Hahn explains how, in Holy Mass, we actively take part in the heavenly worship. The book of Revelation, he says, is a description of the liturgy of Heaven—the Angels and Saints singing and praising in adoration. In Holy Mass we are whisked up to Heaven, as John was (Rev 4:1-2), to join the Angels and Saints before the throne of God. When we sing or say the “Gloria” and “Holy, holy, holy” we are joining “in their unending hymn.”\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis insightful series reveals the intensely Scriptural nature of Holy Mass and clearly demonstrates how not just the readings, but many elements of the Holy Sacrifice are firmly rooted in the words of the Inspired authors of the Bible. This series is a must for all Catholics who desire to be better able to defend Catholic liturgical practices from their Protestant detractors.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNever again need you be at a loss to defend the “Biblical Basis” of the Holy Sacrifice—never again will you wonder what to say to those contemplating leaving the Church on the basis of being “better fed” elsewhere—no longer do you have to be lost for words when asked, “Why do you Catholics do that in Holy Mass?” And the next time your mind wanders at Holy Mass, you’ll be able to bring it back—just by remembering that you are surrounded by angels.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eDo Catholics really hear the Gospel?
