Talking about the "things that matter most" on Feb. 28

4:00 – The Living Stations of the Cross
Experience the Passion like never before. Walk with Jesus on the Way of the Cross. Witness the Last Supper. Share in His agony in the Garden. Immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of His trial and crucifixion in the original musical production The Living Stations of the Cross. Live and feel the most important mystery of our faith. Now, with the approval of Archbishop Vigneron, the production is coming to the Cathedral of the Most Blessed Sacrament in Detroit for the first performance of its kind at a Cathedral in the US. We talk with Kelly Nieto, producer and creator of the Living Stations.

5:20 – The Mass: The Glory, the Mystery, the Tradition
The Mass: The Glory, the Mystery, the Tradition is an engaging and authoritative guide to Catholicism’s most distinctive practice. And now, with the Church introducing revised language for the Mass, Catholics have a perfect opportunity to renew their understanding of this beautiful and beloved celebration. Co-authors Cardinal Donald Wuerl and Mike Aquilina guide readers through the different parts of the Mass, from the entrance procession to the blessing and dismissal, capturing the deep meaning of elements that are at once ordinary and mysterious: bread and wine, water and candles, altar cloths and ceremonial books. They join us.

5:40 – Parents of Baby Joseph to appeal ruling that would take child off life support
