What Happens at Mass draws the reader to a deeper understanding of the Mystery of Faith. The Mass is the gift of and an encounter with Jesus Christ. What Happens at Mass is about God acting in our lives through tangible human actions and words.

I am only on page 15 but I say READ IT! READ IT, MARK IT, and INWARDLY DIGEST IT!

This is book I always wanted to write. It is not about "how to" liturgics or "how to" anything else-- it's about what is happening at the Eucharist, the Mass, actually what God is doing and who the Church responds not as a collection of individuals or even as institution, but as Christ present in the world which he loves.

It is concrete, specific, and eternal! PLEASE read it! (
