Praying the Mass is hitting to the radio waves! This Wednesday, September 15th — which happens to be the two-year anniversary of WFJS 1260-AM Trenton (Domestic Church Radio) going on-the-air — I will be recording two episodes for a 13-part radio series on the Mass, based on my books.
Today (Tuesday, September 14th) around 5:45 PM, I will be doing a test-run of these two shows at home, making sure I can fit the content into the allotted time. Tomorrow (Wednesday) around 5:15 PM, I will be recording them at the radio station.
Both today and tomorrow I will be simulcasting and recording those two shows on my ustream channel. I encourage and welcome you to visit ustream.com to watch and listen as I record and speak about the Mass. If you watch and listen today, please send me feedback!

That's my King... do you know him?
The Bible says
my King is.the King of the Jews,
He's.the King of Israel,
He's.the King of righteousness,
He's.the King of the ages,
He's.the King of heaven,
He's.the King of glory,
He's.the King of Kings,
and He's.the Lord of Lords.
That's my King. I wonder, do you know him?
My King is a sovereign King.
No means of measure can define his limitless love.
He's enduringly.strong.
He's entirely.sincere.
He's eternally.steadfast.
He's immortally.graceful.
He's imperially.powerful.
He's impartially.merciful.
Do you know him?
He's.the greatest phenomenon
.that has ever crossed the horizon of this world.
He's.God Son.
He's.a sinner's savior.
He's.the centerpiece of civilization.
He's.unparalleled.
He's.unprecedented.
He is.the loftiest idea in literature.
He is.the highest personality in philosophy.
He is.the fundamental doctrine of true theology.
He's.the only one qualified to be an all-sufficient savior.
I wonder if you know him today?
He supplies strength.to the weak.
He's available.to the tempted and the tried.
He sympathizes.and He saves.
He strengthens.and sustains.
He guards.and He guides.
He heals.the sick.
He cleansed.the lepers.
He forgives.sinners.
He discharges.debtors.
He delivers.the captive.
He defends.the feeble.
He blesses.the young.
He serves.the unfortunate.
He regards.the aged.
He rewards.the diligent.
And He beautifies.the meek.
I wonder if you know him?
He's the key.to knowledge.
He's the wellspring.of wisdom.
He's the doorway.of deliverance.
He's the pathway.of peace.
He's the roadway.of righteousness.
He's the highway.of holiness.
He's the gateway.of glory.
Do you know him?
Well, His life.is matchless.
His goodness.is limitless.
His mercy.is everlasting.
His love.never changes.
His Word.is enough.
His grace.is sufficient.
His reign.is righteous.
And His yoke.is easy.
And His burden.is light.
I wish I could describe him to you.
He's.indescribable.
He's.incomprehensible.
He's.invincible.
He's.irresistible.
Well, you can't.get him out of your mind.
You can't.get him off of your hand.
You can't.outlive him,
And you can't.live without him.
The Pharisees couldn't.stand him,
But they found out they couldn't.stop him.
Pilate couldn't.find any fault in him.
Herod couldn't.kill him.
Death couldn't.handle him
And the grave couldn't.hold him.
That's my King, do you know him?

Liturgy: Dog in the Recessional
There's a YouTube video making the rounds (rather quickly) that shows a dog joining in the recessional at the end of Mass, carrying the priest's hymnal in its mouth. The story circulating with the video is that the dog belongs to the priest, and that before Mass began the priest gave a brief plug for the dog shampoo he uses (treating the altar as a stand for the product).
While there are blessings for animals in both the Roman Ritual and the modern Book of Blessings, and there is a rite of blessing of animals for use on the Feast of St. Francis, the general presence of animals at Mass seems like a poor prudential decision. The dog carrying the priest's hymnal in the recessional seems more like a secular spectacle (a circus act) than a sacred action (a liturgical act).

Knowledge is Power... Religion is Knowledge Too
Here's an interesting commercial... too bad it is not historical.
