Session 5: Liturgy of the Word

Mr. Carl Swanson discusses how Christian worship is seen as the entire experience of new life in Christ, and how Holy Scripture narrates this new way of life through its sacramental character—making Christ present to the Church through the written word. He then explains the first part of the Mass, the "Liturgy of the Word," discussing the history and significance of its constituent parts, and how it leads the worshipper into the next part of the Mass, Holy Communion.

The 10-week series will explore topics like The Creeds of the Church, The Moral Law, The Church Calendar, Church Symbolism, and The Duties of a Christian Life.
