The Mass is powerful

The Mass is the most powerful prayer that exists. The Son of God physically enters the world at each and every Catholic Mass.

But if the Mass is so powerful, why don’t we experience it as powerful? Why do we—and the world—seem unchanged?

The answer is simple: we don’t grasp what’s happening because we don’t know enough about it. We don’t change because we’re unaware of the opportunity for profound graces. Many of us see the Mass as routine and ordinary. But if we understood it better, we’d know without doubt that the Mass is the most important thing in our lives.

It’s time to go deeper.

A true understanding of the Mass leads to a deeper experience, more graces, interior transformation, and personal spiritual renewal.

“If we really understood the Mass,” said St. John Vianney, “we would die of joy.”

The Mass is not a purposeless ritual. It has developed over thousands of years, starting before the birth of Christ. It’s a tapestry of Scripture and Tradition containing the entire mystery of our salvation. That’s no small thing, which is why so many of us Catholics struggle. It can be hard to see all the beauty before us; to soak in all the signs of God’s love; to respond to His many invitations throughout each and every celebration of the Sacred Liturgy.

If we want to feel more alive during the Mass, then we need to understand what is really going on. If we want to see God in these mysteries, we need to know where to look.

If we want to worship God like we ought to—if we want to experience His Love like He wants us to—then we need to focus on what He has given us: the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

Let’s unlock it together.

Our series is here to take you deeper. We’ll go on a 30-day journey into the hidden depths of the Mass and help you navigate the deep symbolism of its rituals. We’ll explore its biblical foundations, from Genesis to Revelation. We’ll tell you about the true purpose of the Mass and guide you to a deeper appreciation of Our Lord’s actions within it.

Join us, and discover why Padre Pio said: “It would be easier for the world to survive without the sun than to do without Holy Mass.”

What is included in this series?

In this series, you will receive 30 lessons. Each lesson consists of a 3-5 minute video from Fr. Brad Doyle and an article (about the length of a medium-sized blog article) from our Good Catholic staff. Each lesson ends with an audio rosary you can pray with us.

How long does this series take?

We recommend 1 lesson per day, so your series will run approximately 30 days. Every day (starting the day after you sign up), you will receive an email prompting you to read and watch the fascinating daily content for that day’s lesson. You can also jump ahead, viewing the lessons that interest you, or take more time with each lesson. Basically, go at your own pace—the emails are just there as reminders. You can repeat the series as often as you wish for a full year.

I have loved this series, and want to go over it again. Praise God. There is so much that we need to be thankful for. So much to be awakened to. Life is short. Time is precious. God is good! Amen!

This was a wonderful series. Fr. Doyle was an excellent presenter. He was clear, concise, and kept my attention. I find myself concentrating more at Mass, and when the distractions come I pull myself back sooner to the Mass. Even though I love going to Mass, now it has even more meaning to me. Great job, Good Catholic!

Fr. Doyles Day 30 wrap up is a Gold Medal, no doubt in my mind.
Praying the Mass means so much to me and these sessions served to enrich the entire Mass environment.
Thank You, Fr. Doyle!

The series on The Mass and this series on The Angels has changed my perspective of the Mass and my preparation before Mass. This seems to be full filling avoid I have had. Thank for the insight on the story of Martha & Mary. Trying to be more like Mary.
