Life of Christ in the Mass, by Saint Vincent Ferrer, O.P.

In this brief yet incredibly powerful masterpiece, The Life of Christ in the Mass, the legendary medieval preacher Saint Vincent Ferrer provides an unforgettable spiritual map for the soul. Filled with the apocalyptic zeal and pastoral warmth that converted thousands during his lifetime, St. Vincent deconstructs the liturgy into thirty principal deeds accomplished by Jesus Christ during His earthly life. From the quiet moment the priest steps up to the altar steps to the final blessing, you will discover how each specific prayer, genuflection, and ritual movement perfectly reprises a historical moment from the Gospels—acting as a mystical window directly into the life of Christ.
