Embark on a transformative journey into the heart of Eucharistic worship with Behold, Believe, Become--where the ordinary becomes extraordinary and the Mass becomes a soul-saving, life-changing encounter with Christ, our Eucharistic Lord.
In Behold, Believe, Become, Timothy P. O'Malley, a distinguished leader in the Eucharistic Revival movement and bestselling author of Becoming Eucharistic People and Real Presence, shows you how to see differently--through newly formed habits of contemplation--fifteen ordinary, physical things that the Church uses at Mass to point us toward Christ. You will explore layers of meaning found in noble doors and stained-glass windows, sunlight and water, oil and fire, altars and church pews, and bread and wine become Body and Blood. O'Malley helps you see how each element tells us something about who Christ is and who we are to become as Christian people.
Inspired by the towering genius of the twentieth-century liturgical movement, Fr. Romano Guardini (1865-1968), O'Malley offers an unconventional walk through the Mass, highlighting that "matter matters." This book doesn't delve into the intricate history of Eucharistic Prayers or the doctrinal meaning of various words and actions. Instead, it provides a unique exploration of the material stuff of the Mass that we encounter from the time we enter the church until the time we depart at the end.
Whether you're seeking personal growth or exploring this journey with a small group, Behold, Believe, Become is the perfect companion, providing brief online videos featuring Rachel and Jason Bulman of "Meet the Bulmans" and chapter-ending reflection questions to help connect your everyday life to the celebration of Mass. And for those craving a communal experience, a small-group leader's guide and parish planning kit make this an invaluable resource for parishes, schools, and other Catholic communities.
Are you ready to witness the Mass in a new light? Behold, Believe, Become is your key to unlocking a richer, more meaningful Eucharistic experience.
O'Malley, Timothy P.
