The Biblical Roots of the Mass

Questions Covered:

  • 22:20 - Why were Eucharistic ministers brought into the Mass when they don’t have consecrated hands? Why was receiving in the hand instituted? 
  • 36:10 - Every time the Blessed Sacrament is exposed, it’s only the Body of Christ and not the Blood. Why is that? 
  • 37:38 - I am a cantor at Church. I receive Communion and then have to start leading music right away. How can I make that time sacred since I can’t just kneel and pray? 
  • 44:22 - At my Church, they play music the entire time during the reception of the Eucharist. Should there be time for silence? 
  • 47:05 - What is the ‘Sanctus’ for and what does it signify? 
  • 49:31 - The way that the centurion approached Jesus was beautiful and humble. How can soldiers, law enforcement, etc. channel that humility in our approach to Jesus today?
