What Attracts Men To The Sacred Liturgy And Why
$14.95
In this timely book, acclaimed radio host and author Jesse Romero teaches men how the traditional liturgy equips them to put on the armor of Christ and fight the daily spiritual battle for souls.
Drawing from his background in law enforcement and spiritual warfare, Romero outlines why the traditional Latin Mass spoke to him in such a powerful way and transformed his spiritual life. He describes how the implementation of the new Mass — with its emotionalism and horizontal focus — led men in particular to lose the zeal of the saints, and how the manner in which they worship God is central to restoring that fervor.
Romero breaks down exactly why men find their “natural and supernatural home on this earth” at the traditional Mass. He highlights:
*The sacrificial nature of the TLM, and how the actions of the Mass express each step of the Passion
*The liturgy’s appeal to intellect over emotion
*The power of silence in embracing mystery and instilling reverence
*How the TLM is Christo-centric rather anthropocentric, and why this is the proper orientation toward the divine
Romero includes select essays from priests on the efficacy of traditional prayers, and firsthand testimonies from powerful Catholic men of today, including NFL kicker Harrison Butker, UFC Hall of Famer Bas Rutten, and Navy SEAL Charlie Aeschliman, who have found solace and purpose in the traditional liturgy.
As contributor Kyle Clement, a rancher, husband, and father puts it, “Part of the masculine disposition is a desire for ritual and fraternity — ritual meaning order. The Holy Roman Mass in the Tridentine form is ordered, and it is order that lifts the soul toward Heaven.”
In the midst of a culture that distorts authentic masculinity and femininity, the timeless teachings of the Catholic Church, as expressed through her traditional liturgy, stand steadfastly in the fray.
What Attracts Men to the Sacred Liturgy — and Why gives men insight into how the liturgy is the wellspring of their vocations, the source of their strength, and the fullest expression of the truth worth dying for.
