Why Can Only Priests Consecrate the Eucharist?
To support Ascension's free media, please consider making a financial gift at ascensionpress.com/support! Why is it that only priests are able to consecrate the Eucharist in the Mass? In this episode, Fr. Josh explains the Scriptural teachings as well as the teachings handed down by the Church behind this, and we also hear the story of St. Charles de Foucauld, who teaches us to listen to the voice of God, to follow where he leads us, and to trust he will sustain us in our ministry and in our daily life.
