Liturgy Wars: Catholic Liturgy Since Vatican II - a podcast by Darrick N Taylor
from 2019-04-30T17:01:53
Within living memory, the liturgy of the Latin rite provided a visible focus of unity for Catholics. It possessed a universal liturgical language that distinguished Catholicism wherever it was present, supplemented by devotional practices such as processions, Eucharistic adoration and other aids to faith. To many Catholics, it appeared the embodiment of the Church's unchanging nature. By contrast, today the liturgy of the Latin Church is a source of controversy, over virtually every aspect of the liturgy, whether it be which direction the priest faces, the music played, or the vestments worn by the clergy, and has been the source of fierce debates and division among clergy and laity alike. "Liturgy Wars: Catholic Liturgy After Vatican II" will describe the efforts to reform the Catholic liturgy in the 20th century and how those efforts led to the divisions which persist within the Roman Catholic Church today.
