The Spiritual Wisdom Of The Gospels For Christian Preachers And Teachers: Feasts, Funerals, And Weddings: Following Love into Mystery (Spiritual Wisdom Of Gospels For Christian Preachers And Teachers)
This is the fourth and final volume of a series on the lectionary that is intended to provide food for thought and preaching. Shea is a nationally known spiritual guide whose writing is at once inspiring and provocative. In this volume he provides commentary on the readings for major festivals (e.g., Christmas, Lent Easter, Pentecost) and for weddings and funerals. His method is not a verse-by-verse commentary on the biblical passages (although he draws on sound biblical interpretation) but meditative essays prompted by the readings. Preachers will find a lot of great homily leads here and so, too, will any reader seeking some good spiritual nourishment.
