Episode notes
Christ Works Sacramentally Today
- The Church continues Christ's work today by sacramentalizing his action through the Church and its sacraments.
- The sacraments make present and efficacious the Paschal Mystery so believers can participate in Christ's life now.
Paschal Mystery Transcends Time
- The Paschal Mystery is not merely historical because Christ's act participates in divine eternity and remains present.
- Liturgy makes that mystery present so worshipers truly share in salvation rather than merely remember it.
Celebrate Mass Fully, Not Just Receive
- Do not reduce Mass to a quick exchange for the Eucharist; engage the entire rite, symbols, music, and space.
- Prioritize beauty and proper celebration so people encounter and desire the Paschal Mystery more deeply.
