In this episode of The Councils, Father and Stephen look at the legacy of the Council of Trent. We still live in a “post-Trent” era, one that Christians for 1500 years never saw. Things that came out of the Council that we now take as givens include:
- A Universal Catechism and Calendar
- A Code of Canon Law (which would be finally collected and issued under St. Pius X in one volume)
- A standard Mass and breviary
- Seminaries and universal training standards for priests
- Bishops only holding one see and residing in that see
- Regular synods held by bishops
- The Index of Forbidden Books
- Congregation of Rites
- Congregation of the Council
This is one of the most important Councils in Church history and certainly the most important in our era.
