Welcome back to Catholic Dance with Live, I'm Psy Kelliger host.

For the most part, we experience the Eucharistic Lord, Christ our Lord, given to us.

In the context of the Mass, that's what we celebrate, that's what I'm thinking.

If we're going to have a Eucharistic revival, we're going to have to take seriously what

we do at Mass and make sure that what we're doing at Mass is actually bringing us closer

to them, because that's what we want a Eucharistic revival to be.

If we're going to revive something, let's revive coming close to Jesus, who comes close

to us in the Eucharist, and so this hour we talk a bit about the beauty of the Mass,

and is the Mass beautiful, is the Mass intended to be beautiful?

What does it mean that the Mass is beautiful, and can we make the Mass more beautiful?

Father Michael Ranier is our guest, he's a former Anglican church pastor from the Anglican

Church in North America, he was received into the Catholic Church 13 years ago in 2010,

and ordained under the pastoral provision for former Anglican clergy, now serves in the

Archdiocese of St. Louis, where he and his wife live with their six children.

Father Ranier, thank you very much for being here with us.

I appreciate it, thanks for having me.

In addition, I should tell people, you also have a book called The Forgotten Language,

How Recovering the Poetics of the Mass, will Change Our Lives, and you also write it

out, I have a Sunday column there, so once a week on Sunday, I have a lifestyle piece,

I usually write about kids and how I'm a bad parent, that's what I think.

No, that's some of what you write about, but there's all kinds of interesting things there,

and you write about, you've also written about some liturgical things there as well,
