176 The Third Commandment – Keep Holy the Lord’s Day. Interview with Fr. Maxwell

In this episode I welcome Fr. Matthew Maxwell, and we discuss the Third Commandment, “Keep the Day of the Lord holy”. We speak about the meaning of the Sabbath in the Old Testament, and how the Church started to celebrate the Day of the Lord on Sunday, the day the Lord rose from the dead. We also discuss what are the obligations imposed by this Commandment, how and when missing Mass on Sunday is a mortal sin, and how to sanctify the Day of the Lord.
