Apostolate talks on the Spiritual Life
“Among the gifts of grace which Francis received from God the generous Giver, he merited as a special privilege to grow in the riches of simplicity through his love of the highest poverty. The holy man saw that poverty was the close companion of the Son of God, and now that it was rejected by the whole world, he was eager to espouse it in everlasting love. For the sake of poverty he not only left his father and mother, but also gave away everything he had. No one was so greedy for gold as he was for poverty; nor was anyone so anxious to guard his treasure as he was in guarding this pearl of the Gospel.”
St. Bonaventure, Major life.

THE MASS EXPLAINED
AN IN-DEPTH CATECHETICAL SERIES ON THE HOLY SACRIFICE OF MASS
Each talk is in two parts, consisting in all of ten talks. The first half of the series deals with the Theology of the Mass, namely the virtue of Religious and its primary element of sacrifice, which the Mass is. The second part walks through the Mass itself, looking at its organic historical development, as well as its ascetically and theological significance, which is presented most always from a practical Roman point of view.
