Product Description
For every Sunday of Year A, Jack McArdle outlines the central theme of the gospel reading and then offers an extensive reflection on it, under five headings: firstly, a Parable seeks to clarify the theme; secondly, the Teaching of the particular reading is outlined; thirdly, he suggests a living Response to the reading; fourthly, a Practical paragraph points towards the implications of the gospel for everyday life, and fifthly, a Story is offered which further reinforces the message of the gospel.
The author says: 'I know many people who are reflective and contemplative by nature, and the word of the Lord is a personal word for them. They would like to know what the Sunday readings are beforehand, so they can prepare their hearts to welcome that word. They also continue to ponder that word throughout the following week. They are too mature in their Christian responsibility to settle for sitting back, and leaving it all to the preacher.'
He continues: 'This book is written for anyone who needs material for reflection, and who benefits from being presented with material that has some structure and order to it.'
