Some think it should be all preaching, others think it should be “entertaining” still others think it’s all about the music. But, what does the Bible say about worship? And, why do Catholics do what they do at Mass? Why all the standing, sitting, kneeling, and repetition? Where does it all come from? In this important series, Dr. Brant Pitre takes you on a scriptural tour of topics such as: The Shape of Worship: Who determines how we worship? God or us? The Meaning of Sacrifice: Why did God demand animal sacrifice in the Old Testament? What was the meaning of blood sacrifice? Does it play any role in Christian worship today? Many Catholics know what to do at Mass, but not why we do it. Why We Worship is the perfect resource for anyone who wants to understand the Bible and what it really says about the mystery and meaning of worship.
