Session Description

One thing, when we go back to the fourth century, it doesn't matter what communion or denomination you represent, because there was only one anyway. Having said that, however, it is very interesting, in the Roman Catholic tradition we have had a very precise way to do liturgy and sacraments. This wasn't always so. Our immediate history tends to dictate the whole history and that is not so. What I am presenting today I am extrapolating from oodles of documents that tend to give us these impressions.
