Liturgical Time Bombs In Vatican II by Michael Davies Pdf
Michael Davies shows how Fr. Annibale Bugnini--before his dismissal by Pope Paul VI under suspicion of being a Freemason--was able to "reform" the Catholic Mass into the constantly evolving liturgy. Quoting Bishops and Cardinals as well as liberal "experts" and Protestant observers, he exposes the "time bombs" which were built into the Second Vatican Council's document on the liturgy by a few revolutionaries in order to be exploited later--and which have been detonating ever since. "I am convinced that the crisis in the Church that we are experiencing is to a large extent due to the disintegration of the liturgy."--Cardinal Ratzinger (now Pope Benedict XVI), 1998.
This book tells the story of The Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, presents and analyzes its main points, and describes how its agenda has fared on its sometimes tumultuous journey from the time of Vatican II up to the present. (Publisher).
The Reception of the Second Vatican Council's Liturgical Reforms in Nigeria (Nsukka Diocese) by Uchenna Aba Pdf
Fifty years after the promulgation of the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, a great moment has dawned in which a more dispassionate assessment of the reception of this important document has become imperative in order to enable the Church to undertake necessary steps in realizing the full potential of the renewal envisaged by the Council Fathers. The present study identifies peculiar and diverse challenges confronting the process of reception in the Nsukka Diocese/Nigerian Church today. However, the author acknowledges that the full reception of Sacrosanctum Concilium is still a work-in-progress. Uchenna Aba is a Catholic priest in Nsukka, Nigeria, and currently the Chaplain of St. Martin's Parish, Goch, Diocese of Muenster, Germany. Dissertation. [Subject: Religious Studies, African Studies]
Crouan, the author of several studies on liturgical questions including the book The Liturgy Betrayed presents another penetrating work on the state of the Eucharistic Liturgy, the problems and errors that still exist, and how to correct these abuses. The responses Crouan has received to all of his writing and speaking on this topic from Catholics of every stripe show the weariness and confusion of many of the faithful regarding the Sacred Liturgy. Crouan says that the great majority of Catholics need and want, not celebrations that are "pastorally correct", but a Eucharistic liturgy that offers all the guarantees of Catholicity and leads them to an authentic contemplation of the mysteries being celebrated. He expresses the urgency needed to examine what is going on in parish churches, and to clarify matters by acknowledging the liturgical errors in order to establish a greater fidelity to the real teaching of Vatican II and the Roman Missal.
What We Have Done, What We Have Failed to Do by Kevin W. Irwin Pdf
Sheds light on and invites discussion about the experience in which Catholics have been engaged since the Second Vatican Council in implementing and praying the liturgy as reformed after the council.
Liturgy in the Twenty-First Century by Alcuin Reid Pdf
'Because the Sacred Liturgy is truly the font from which all the Church's power flows...we must do everything we can to put the Sacred Liturgy back at the very heart of the relationship between God and man... I ask you to continue to work towards achieving the liturgical aims of the Second Vatican Council...and to work to continue the liturgical renewal promoted by Pope Benedict XVI, especially through the post-synodal apostolic exhortation Sacramentum Caritatis...and the motu proprio Summorum Pontificum... I ask you to be wise, like the householder...who knows when to bring out of his treasure things both new and old (see: Mtt 13:52), so that the Sacred Liturgy as it is celebrated and lived today may lose nothing of the estimable riches of the Church's liturgical tradition, whilst always being open to legitimate development.' These words of Robert Cardinal Sarah, Prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship, underline the liturgy's fundamental role in every aspect of the life and mission of the Church. Liturgy in the Twenty-First Century makes available the different perspectives on this from leading figures such as Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke, Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone, Abbot Philip Anderson, Father Thomas Kocik, Dom Alcuin Reid, and Dr Lauren Pristas. Considering questions of liturgical catechetics, music, preaching, how young people relate to the liturgy, matters of formation and reform, etc., Liturgy in the Twenty-First Century is an essential resource for all clergy and religious and laity involved in liturgical ministry and formation. Bringing forth 'new treasures as well as old,' its contributors identify and address contemporary challenges and issues facing the task of realising the vision of Cardinal Sarah, Cardinal Ratzinger/Benedict XVI and the Second Vatican Council.
The Proper of Time in the Post-Vatican II Liturgical Reforms by Matthew Hazell Pdf
The aim of The Proper of Time in the Post-Vatican II Liturgical Reforms is to allow easy comparison of the work of the Consilium ad exsequendam Constitutionem de Sacra Liturgia on the prayers of the Roman Missal with those found in the 1962 Missal and the 1970/2002 Missal. The Consilium ad exsequendam Constitutionem de Sacra Liturgia, better known as the Consilium, was the body that, during the Second Vatican Council, was made responsible for the reform of the liturgy that was desired by the Constitution on the Liturgy (Sacrosanctum Concilium). One of the various documents of Group 18 of the Consilium, Schema 186, deals with the reform of the various prayers (collects, prayers over the gifts, etc.) contained in the Proper of Time of the Roman Missal, and gives draft texts for each day in this section. The prayers of the Ordinary and Extraordinary Forms of the Roman Rite are, in many places, very different. In recent years, these differences and the work of the Consilium have increasingly been the object of scholarly study and enquiry. Now, in The Proper of Time in the Post-Vatican II Liturgical Reforms, the corpus of orations in Schema 186 are readily available for the first time, and have been arranged side-by-side in parallel with those of the 1962 and 1970/2002 Missals for easy comparison. Various tools and indices are also provided in the book to aid further study and research into this important aspect of the post-Vatican II liturgical reforms.
Vatican Ii: a Historic Turning Point by David Martin Pdf
After years of mounting controversy over the conciliar reform a book finally emerges to set the record straight about Vatican II and how it was used by progressives to change the course of Church history. This fast moving book shows what happened at the Council and how it opened the way for a new ecumenical movement not tied with the religion of the past. It shows how progressives hijacked the opening session and how they scrapped Pope John's plan for Vatican II, and how they used the liturgy as a tiller to navigate Peter's Bark onto a new and dangerous course. It also provides the gist of the long awaited Third Secret of Fatima, and reveals the "Deception of the Century" concerning Pope Paul VI and what he endured at the hands of Vatican bureaucrats. Riveting, Hard-hitting, and bound to captivate! A must read for anyone concerned with the Church! As we tread in the shadows of the great ecumenical Council it is expedient to understand our condition and this book will dispel any doubt and place everything in focus that we may recognize the times and approach them with courage, peace and light.

Vatican Council II by Elizabeth Harrington,David Orr,Carmel Pilcher Pdf
Sacrosanctum Concilium opened the door to all Christians to understand the contemporary challenge to their life and health, and it started with the reform of the liturgy. In the words of Paul VI the liturgy is the 'first source of life communicated to us, the first school of our spiritual life, the first gift we can give to Christian people by our believing and praying, and the first invitation to the world.' That is surely true for all of us.
Amoris Laetitia and the spirit of Vatican II by Mariusz Biliniewicz Pdf
Amoris Laetitia, Pope Francis' post-synodal exhortation on love in the family, turned out to be one of the most controversial documents of the Magisterium of the Catholic Church in recent decades. It was published in April 2016 following the two "Synods of Bishops on the Family" held in 2014 and 2015. The document brought division amongst the Catholic hierarchy, theologians and pastors and nearly two years after its publication the exact meaning of the document and its implications for the Church are still a matter of dispute. A number of prelates present at the Synods indicated that these gatherings were animated by "the spirit of Vatican II." This work links the notion of "the spirit of Vatican II" with Amoris Laetitia and it argues that a hermeneutics of interpretation of the Second Vatican Council which focuses on following "the spirit of the Council" is the hermeneutics which can be, and in the future most likely will be, the predominant way of interpreting and implementing Amoris Laetitia. This book aims to provide a contribution to this hotly debated topic in the field of Catholic theology.
Transforming Catholicism by David R. Maines,Michael J. McCallion Pdf
This book is among the first social scientific studies of liturgical change in the Catholic church. The analysis is guided by a consistent theory of policy implementation, and it uses first-hand empirical data to ground its assessment and conclusions.
Religion today is in competition with the leisure and entertainment industries. Gen Y, the postmodern generation, is open to spirituality; but most of todays young adults have not been born into faith communities where they feel any lasting allegiance. Studies suggest that for the young, belief in God is an optional matter, a virtual consumer choice. As a result, different trends in worship and worship styles are offered by different churches to suit lifestyles, attitudes, and personal taste.
