The Word of the Lord at Mass: Understanding the Lectionary unveils the beauty and significance of the Lectionary, the book from which Catholics hear Scripture proclaimed during Mass. Author Regina Boisclair explores the connection between the Liturgy of the Word and the Liturgy of the Eucharist, emphasizing the Lectionary's purpose in making Christ’s voice present to His people.

Through engaging language, this book covers the history of the Lectionary's development, particularly its transformation following the Second Vatican Council. Boisclair also explains how the chosen readings unfold the Paschal Mystery, align with the liturgical year, and highlight the ecumenical importance of the Lectionary. With insights into the physical design of the four Lectionary volumes, this accessible guide is enriched by charts, quotes, a glossary, and recommendations for further study.

Ideal for liturgical ministers, educators, and anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of Scripture's role in the liturgy.
