How to Restore Reverence in the Mass w/ Archbishop Cordileone | Ep. 200
Catholic Theology Show
In this powerful episode of the Catholic Theology Show, host Michael Dauphinais welcomes His Excellency Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone of San Francisco. They discuss the heart of Christian courage, the beauty and truth of the Church’s timeless teachings on marriage and human flourishing, and the urgent need to recover reverence in the celebration of the Holy Mass. Archbishop Cordileone shares insights on the Benedict XVI Institute for Sacred Music and Divine Worship, the new Reverent Liturgy Project, the power of sacred music (including the Mass of the Americas), Ad Orientem worship, kneeling for Communion, silence in church, active participation, and how beauty draws souls to Christ. They also explore personal encounter with Jesus, evangelization through genuine friendship, the integration of faith and reason (logica latria), and why the Church’s tradition remains a source of joy and communion in a secular age. A rich conversation filled with wisdom, hope, and practical encouragement for priests, seminarians, and lay faithful seeking deeper union with Christ in the liturgy and in daily life.
