17 - Liturgy and the Sacraments

Crash Course Catholicism

Welcome to Part Two of the Catechism!
In this episode we briefly introduce some key ideas around sacraments and the liturgy that will guide the next few episodes. What is a sacrament? Why do we always say the same things at mass? Why do I have to worship in a church?
This episode covers Part Two, Section One of the Catechism of the Catholic Church (pts 1066-1209).
