This book was different than I expected it to be.
I was expecting more of a "we use green for ordinary time because..." or "we can sign this kind of song this day and not the other because..." but it was not that. It was a real history, focusing much on why we celebrate things WHEN we do. Why is the baptism of the lord the Sunday after Epiphany?
Why are their less Saint's feast then when you were a kid? (of course as a convert there are more, and I wish I had what we used to)
The journey in show more the 20th century to trying to remind Catholics that THE BIBLE is where we belong.
An interesting output, even if it was different than what I was hoping. show less
