Dr. James Starke of the Diocese of Arlington asks: How did our liturgical year develop?  Did we always celebrate Christmas?  What are the origins of Lent?  What are “idea feasts?” When were saints’ days added?  These and other questions will be answered as we explore the fascinating development of our liturgical year.
