St. Peter had a great love for Our Lord, though we know from Scripture that he had an intemperate soul until Christ calmed it. His call for mutual charity or, to put it another way, supernatural friendship, is a reminder that we are called to look beyond our neighbors' faults to find the good in them. And at the same time, we hope they will see the same in us.

Today in the Catholic Mass Series, we explore what it means to participate in the liturgy. Does active participation mean singing aloud and following the Missal, or does it mean something deeper? Father unpacks the original meaning of the phrase, “Active Participation,” by tracing its roots to Pope St. Pius X. He also explains how participation has developed—and sometimes been misunderstood—in recent decades. From the beauty of congregational chant to the quiet devotion of the Rosary, how are the faithful meant to engage in the Church's public worship? True participation, we shall see, is interior first—expressed in reverent, unified worship.

Our Lord draws closest to us, spiritually and materially, in the Eucharist. How do we respond to this great gift, particularly after receiving Holy Communion? Do we continue to remember that Our Lord is within us, even after Mass, or do we get distracted immediately by worldly concerns? While Our Lord will always desire to be close to us, we must desire to be close to Him as well; we must return His love

On Pentecost, the faithful commemorate the birthday of the Church. Yet it is also a time to reflect on the coming of the Paraclete, the Holy Ghost, and the gifts He bestows upon the faithful. What these gifts are and what they can do for us in our everyday lives is the topic of this sermon.

On the great feast of the Holy Trinity, we recall that while our limited human intellect can conclude a great deal about a single, all-good God, it can tell us nothing about the mystery of the Trinity without the light of revelation. Although the dogma of the Trinity appears, on the surface, to be simple, we must remember to approach it with caution and humility lest we slip into heresy. Even so, it is still possible to speak of the internal life of the Holy Trinity with respect to the knowledge of and love the three Persons of the Trinity have for one another.

Today in the Catholic Mass Series, we begin a new segment: the liturgical year. The Mass is not offered in isolation—it's framed by the Church's calendar, shaped by seasons of penance, joy, and reflection. In this episode, we explore the structure of the temporal and sanctoral cycles, and how they guide our worship, prayer, and spiritual growth. From Advent to Pentecost, each season draws us deeper into the mysteries of Christ's life. Understanding this cycle is imperative to living in harmony – and obedience with the Church's rhythm, and to receiving the graces intended for each sacred moment.

When Jesus Christ established the Catholic Church, He intended it to be the sole means of receiving the grace of the sacraments and the sanctifying grace that they instill. However, as a result of our free will to choose sin over virtue, we know this grace can be lost at any given moment. Although Protestants may intend to follow Our Lord and be faithful to His precepts, by remaining outside of the Church and depriving themselves of the sacraments, they not only imperil their own souls, but deny themselves of the means of salvation that God provides.

The reality that charity covers a multitude of sins is found throughout Scripture. But in St. Peter's first epistle he brings this truth front and center. It's an expression of mercy and will always compel us to cover our neighbor's sin. And as our Lord covered our sins we are called upon to do the same for those around us.

What makes a healthy life of nature and of grace? As Catholics, we know that grace is all-important. But this grace also works and builds upon a foundation which we call nature. Our Faith teaches us how to have a healthy natural life, and this ordered life can bring us profound peace, joy, and purpose when it is infused with the supernatural life of grace.

Today in the Catholic Mass Series, we explore the different forms of the Traditional Latin Mass. What distinguishes a Low Mass from a Solemn High Mass, or a Missa Cantata from a Pontifical Mass? We unpack each form, including their structure, ministers, music, and historical development. We also look at the unique character of the Requiem Mass and the theological reasons behind its distinctive rituals. Whether public or private, sung or silent, every form of the Mass expresses the same mystery: the sacrifice of Calvary made present. Join us as we rediscover the beauty and meaning behind the immemorial Roman Rite.

When speaking of the Holy Trinity, we often overlook the Paraclete, that is, the Holy Ghost. Yet it is the Holy Ghost that guides the Church, even through tumultuous times. And though Christ has ascended into heaven, He continues to be present with us through the third person of the Trinity.

As the crisis in the Church continues on, there are those traditional Catholics who have succumbed to the temptation of sedevacantism, that is, the belief there has been no valid pope since the death of Pius XII. Sedevcantism presents a twofold danger, both intellectual and spiritual. On the intellectual level, sedevacantism reveals itself to be an imprudent position, even in the face of grave concerns over the direction of the Church. On the spiritual level, it opens the door to despair.

In a certain sense, the Ascension is the greatest feast of the Church because it is the supreme glorification of Christ Jesus. This glorification is seen in Our Lord's ascension into heaven after bestowing the Great Commission on His Apostles. Moreover, in sitting at the right hand of the Father, Our Lord--God the Son--demonstrates his triumph over death while preparing a place for those who follow Him faithfully here on earth.

Today we explore the ministers of the Mass and their profound connection to Christ's priesthood. We begin in the Old Testament, with the heads of tribes and the Levites offering sacrifices to God, and see how these acts prefigure the one true priesthood of Our Lord. Then we look at Holy Orders—how it allows priests to act in persona Christi, uniting both priest and victim at the altar. Finally, we examine the structure of this sacrament, the unique dignity of bishops, priests, and deacons, and the controversial history of concelebration. Through it all, we are reminded that the Mass is a sacrifice, and the Church's ministers are essential to our Faith.

The month of May is the month of Mary, culminating in the celebration of the Queenship of Our Lady. Her queenship impresses upon us the importance of our time on earth and our need to centralize God in our lives. And though the Blessed Virgin is singular in her perfection, she remains a model of fidelity to God for us all and a great intercessor for our souls before the throne of heaven.

God is Our Father is in a number of different senses. The most important way in which He is Our Father is that He created us in His image and we are His children by grace. We may come to a deeper understanding of what this means through an examination of the life of St. Germaine and the special devotion she showed toward God the Father.

As St. James instructs, if any man thinks himself religious but does not control his tongue, his religion is vain. The sins of the tongue are, unfortunately, many and come all too easy. Detraction, gossip, and calumny are among these grave sins of the tongue that imperil our souls; therefore, we must be vigilant in learning to bridle our tongues and make reparations when we fail to do so.

One of the great curses of our times is the willingness of so many to believe anything because they have abandoned the pillar and ground of the truth (1 Tim. 3:15), which is the Catholic Church. By abandoning this reality, the Church has compromised its mission and presented to the world that it can contradict its own teachings.

Two of Our Lady's titles, Stella Maris (Star of the Sea) and Stella Matutina (Morning Star) indicate that she is the guiding star in our lives. By taking the Blessed Virgin as our sure guide, she can lead us to know our state of life, that is, the path we will follow.

Today in the Catholic Mass Series, we explore the heart and soul of Tradition: the rubrics and Romanitas of the liturgy. What are the rules that govern the Latin Mass, and why do they matter? We look at how these rubrics are rooted not in rigidity, but in reverence, and how they help the priest and servers act with clarity, unity, and obedience. Father unpacks the deeper meaning of Romanitas – a spirit of universality, order, and discipline – and shows how this ethos has shaped the Latin Church's liturgical life from ancient times to the present day. https://acss.sspxusa.org/  https://angeluspress.org/products/matters-liturgical See all the episodes, and download resources: https://sspxpodcast.com/mass We'd love your feedback on this series! podcast@sspx.org – – – – – – View this episode on YouTube: – – – – – – – The Society of Saint Pius X offers this series and all of its content free of charge.

Our work has a value in the eyes of God. Our Lord has set an example for us, starting the Book of Genesis. And through it, He shows us that our work transcends pecuniary gain and is rather an act of charity for the greater good.

Holy Mother Church presents us the feast of All Saints to instruct us. For each saint has a particular virtue to teach. But the lesson we should draw from this day is that there is a quality common among all of them: a desire to love Our Lord and serve him above all else.

The priesthood is an indispensable aspect of the Catholic Faith. Instituted by Our Lord, it is the means of our sanctification and the gateway to our salvation.

Today in the Catholic Mass Series, we continue with our study of vestments for the Mass. We start with the “altar vestments”, or the altar linens – what is their symbolism, practical reason, and how should we care for them? Then we look at the power and meaning of liturgical colors; from green to gold, each has a significance for both the liturgical calendar and theology. Father also dispels common misconceptions about silver and gold vestments before giving practical advice on how to purchase vestments, and how to care for them so they last for generations.

When Our Lord rose from the dead, there were no trumpet blasts; there was no grand revealing of this miracle. Why then did God choose to keep the Resurrection hidden? And what does this decision mean with respect to our faith in the Risen Lord?

Easter is the richest of all the mysteries of the liturgy. If we enter with good dispositions, knowledge, and love into this mystery, then we enter into the heart of the Catholic Faith and the mystery of our redemption.

We often live our lives in fear of material deprivations and similar hardships. However, as the Bible instructs, fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom—for we know that we should fear sin, which deprives us of God's love. Yet the Resurrection gives us reason for great joy, for it gives us the pathway to eternal life with God.

The last beatitude Our Lord gives is centered on the great gift of faith. It is through faith that we find eternal life. And it is also through faith that we can ask God all that we need for our happiness and salvation.

Our Lord Jesus Christ gave Himself to His creation out of love. This self-giving is expressed through the offering of His Body and Blood during the sacrifice on the Cross and in the Mass. He also offers the forgiveness of sins. These gifts—these sacraments—are perpetuated through the holy priesthood, which Our Lord has established until the end of time.

"He has risen as He foretold!" These words of the angel at the tomb express the very foundation of the Catholic Faith. By laying down His life out of love, Christ conquered death by His own power and fulfilled both the prophecies of the Old Testament and His own own words to His disciples.

Today in the Catholic Mass Series, we continue our discussion of the Mass's visual and ceremonial aspects with a review of the history, symbolism, and function of priestly and episcopal vestments. Why does the priest put on special clothing to celebrate the Mass? Is it purely aesthetic and ceremonial, or is there a theological significance? And when did all this start? Did the Apostles and early Church Fathers wear the same things that you see your local priest wear on Sundays? What was the historic and symbolic development of the cassock, the chasuble, and more?

Today in the Catholic Mass Series, we continue with the artistic trend and focus on the church itself by examining the architecture. Some argue that these are just buildings like any other – but we'll see how the design of a church shapes the worship, the experience of the faithful, and even reflects theological principles. At the same time, it is a human achievement, reflecting the values of each age. So what's the history of church buildings? Where did they start? Is one type better than the other? And are all modern churches, well, Modernist?
