God’s Word Come Alive: Sunday Homilies — Year C

550.00

A masterwork from a priest who is a scripture scholar, retreat preacher and spiritual director, this book is a first-of-its-kind compendium of Homilies for Sundays and Feast Days. Multi-thematic and reader-friendly in content, the presentation of each homily on the Readings for Cycle ‘C’ of the Church’s Liturgical Calendar, is aptly enhanced by a lucid rendition of anecdotes, stories and quotes (biblical, spiritual and secular). From anecdotes and stories bringing out the religiosity of incidents connected with events like the sinking of the Titanic to facts and figures cited in Papal Encyclicals concerning daily human living, the book lucidly spells out a vibrant relationship between God’s Word proclaimed and God’s Word lived. In the process, the preacher concerned is able to help the congregation do two concrete things: Firstly, see a link between every word in Sacred Scripture and the mundaneness of our lives; and, secondly, experience an enrichment of their individual lives. As such, it is essentially a book of reflections meant not merely for the ordained preacher but for the simple lay reader as well.
