In this episode of the Liturgy Resources Podcast, Fr. Kyle Sanders and Eric Wilkes delve into the first three paragraphs of Pope Pius XII's encyclical, Mediator Dei, discussing its historical context, structure, and the significance of liturgy in the Catholic faith. They explore the role of the priesthood, the importance of conscience in worship, and the church's continuous prayer and intercession for humanity. The conversation emphasizes the liturgy as a vital part of the Christian experience and its relevance in addressing human brokenness.
