I'm about one third of the way through this set, and it is an amazing resource. It's been eye-opening to see how the Mass has changed, while remaining true to its Scriptural roots and traditions. This class has illuminated areas of confusion and controversy regarding the Novus Ordo Mass, and that light has given me a much-needed peace. The charts are outstanding, showing side-by-side how the different elements of the Mass may have changed while still remaining the Mass of All Ages. I've learned a lot from The Mass Explained, and this class set is another tremendous resource to help us appreciate what is happening when we pray the Mass. Thank you for the outlines that you provide with each product! Thank you, Dr. Pitre, for a much-needed resource!
