Book excerpt: Familiarity often breeds contempt… or at least boredom, and the readings for Sundays and feast days in the church calendar are familiar. So how can we keep the transforming word of God from lulling our minds and hearts like a warm bath, having little or no effect to encourage us to drift into daydream? One answer is to listen, and that is what this book is about: preparing to listen. For only if we have been mulling the words of Scripture for a while, allowing them to seep into our subconscious, can we be fully attentive when we hear them again at Mass. Another answer is to read the passages we are about to hear in a new and different language, one that forces us to sit up and take notice and think, ôOh, thatÆs what the author was trying to say." And a third answer is to get ourselves a guide to the text, someone who has studied the Bible and spent her professional lifetime trying to navigate and explain it. This transforming Word offers all three: Preparation new translation and an experienced guide. Alice Camille is a serious student and award-winning writer on the Scripture who makes God's word come alive in new and exciting ways. The Message: Catholic/Ecumenical Edition is a fresh, contemporary, compelling, and faith-filled American English translation from the ancient languages by Eugene Peterson, with the additional Deuterocanonical writings translated by William Griffin. And the preparation will be done by you, whether you are lay or ordained homilist or member of the congregation, Bible expert or neophyte. This volume contains all the readings in the Roman Catholic Lectionary for Cycle C. through 2025. Companion volumes are available for Cycles A and B. Book jacket.

Their reflections offer homilists a solid foundation from which to begin the process of preparing to speak the Word of God to their assemblies.

Book excerpt: One of the most influential and fastest-growing movements in the Church today is centered on St. John Paul II’s Theology of the Body, of whose teachings Christopher West is the preeminent translator for a popular audience. In Word Made Flesh: A Companion to the Sunday Readings (Cycle B), West offers reflections on an entire cycle of Sunday Mass readings through the lens of TOB, providing a fresh way to process and act on the Good News by orienting our desires for union with God with our understanding of ourselves and our relationships with others. Wearing John Paul II’s “spousal lenses,” Christopher West, president of the Theology of the Body Institute, takes us on a tour of the Sunday readings throughout the liturgical year and opens their hidden meaning, allowing God’s word to take flesh in our own lives. Word Made Flesh can be used as a weekly devotional, as preparation for Sunday Mass, or to aid priests or deacons in preparing their homilies. West provides an overview of the TOB’s main teachings and an explanation of how they brilliantly illuminate the whole story of salvation from Genesis to Revelation. He offers distinctive reflections each week that naturally and deeply connect with the human experience of living with body and soul in the world while also contemplating the nature of the glorified body in the eternal kingdom to come.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Treasure of the Word: Commentary on Biblical Readings for Sundays, Feast Days, and Solemnities, Cycle C walks the reader through the lectionarys year of readings, beginning with Advent, the first season of the liturgical year. In his reflections on the passages appointed for each Sunday, feast day, and solemnity, Rev. Fr Isidore Okwudili Igwegbe highlights the major themes of the selections. Growing out of his own prayerful study of the readings, he crafts commentaries that enable Christians, whether they are priests, religious, or laity, to encounter prayerfully the Scriptures and the God who speaks through them. The Treasure of the Word stands in a long Catholic tradition of bringing the Scriptures and daily life into conversation. Beyond that, as Rev. Fr Dr Cornelius A. Omeike observes in his foreword, To be closer to Christ, we ought to reflect profoundly on the Word of God; this book provides exactly that. Each of the commentaries begins by listing the day or occasion, a summary of the main message of the lectionarys chosen readings, and the references for the four appointed readings. The commentary then follows, discussing the readings and their intent, while avoiding technical jargon and arcane terms. Your calling may have led you to become a priest, to join a religious community, or to serve in the world as a member of the laity. Regardless, you will find in The Treasure of the Word a work that offers guidance and inspiration seasoned by experience and empowered by the Spirit.
