Fr. Trevor Chicoine returns to Man Up for part two of this series on the liturgy, and Joe puts him through a round of rapid-fire questions every Catholic man has wondered about but rarely asks out loud.
Topics covered in this episode include:
Preparing for Mass — practical tips for getting your family out the door with less chaos, plus why even a few minutes of quiet before Mass changes everything
Attire and reverence — Fr. Chicoine's take on dressing for Mass, modesty, and why "come as you are" is always point number one
The moving of tabernacles — the real history behind the 1970 General Instruction of the Roman Missal, Pope St. John Paul II's 2000 revision, and why some parishes can move the tabernacle back to center while others can't
Chalice veils, incense, and bells — the ancient symbolism behind each, and why "smells and bells" are making a comeback in modern parishes
Living out Vatican II's vision — what the Council actually asked for, and simple ways parishioners can add beauty to their parish through music, flowers, altar linens, and more
Recommended resources for going deeper into the liturgy, including Bishop Barron's "Mass" series and the book What Happens at Mass by Abbot Jeremy Driscoll
A father's role — why dads who take the Mass seriously dramatically shape whether their kids stay in the faith
