Download or read book Sunday Matters written by Mark O'Brien and published by ATF Press. This book was released on 2012-12-31 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Recently Pope Benedict remarked: "the quality of homilies needs to be improved". The Pope made this comment in the context of his extended reflection on the recent Synod in Rome (2010) on the word of God in the mission and life of the Church. The homily is an integral part of Christian liturgy. It is an honoured way of bringing the word of God to life such that people are helped to see the relevance of the word in their everyday lives. The homily is also an art form which needs to be practised and developed with skill. It seems to me, as a preacher myself, that what people are looking for in the homily is an articulate, faith-filled, knowledgeable commentary on the word of God which speaks to their everyday life and experience. People want to see the fire, desire and conviction in the person who preaches. This is a constant challenge. Mark O'Brien here presents his reflections on Year C of the lectionary, based on the Gospel of Luke. This is the companion volume to the earlier ones for Years A and B. Mark offers homilists a great service here. In two to three pages or several hundred words he gives an erudite and practical reflection on the word of God for the particular Sunday or feast as a good foundation on which any homilist can then build. Pope Benedict continues: "The art of good preaching based on the lectionary is an art that needs to be cultivated." In these short but insightful reflections on the readings of the lectionary Mark makes an excellent contribution to developing the art form of good preaching to the benefit of both those who preach and those who hear them.'

Book excerpt: To help us better understand the Sunday and weekday Gospel readings, David Knight has collected his reflections for the lectionary year B in this handy book. Each brief reflection is based on the Gospel of the particular Sunday or weekday. For each weekday, the author has chosen one line from the day's Gospel and offered one question to stimulate reflection. To help us integrate the Gospel into our daily lives, Knight provides in a section called "Living This Week's Gospel" five suggested responses we can make to the Sunday Gospel each week. He bases his suggestions on five words which summarize our identity as Christians: Christian, disciple, prophet, priest and king. Finally, Knight adds a prayer that we can say each day all week, asking for the grace to live by the values proposed in the Sunday reflection.
