This publication offers a guide for reading Sunday Gospels and meditating Homilies every week for the Liturgical Cycle C. A close familiarity with the words of the Gospels brings us into consonance with Jesus, inspires in us his love for the world, builds up enthusiasm for his project of the Kingdom of God, and infuses his Spirit in us. Without our scarcely noticing it, we become Christians. This personal meditation on the words of Jesus transforms us more than all the explanations, sermons, and exhortations which reach us from the outside. People change from within.

Publisher description: The moral life, say the authors, is a living out of one's biblical faith. But too often, time has made the people of the Bible seem remote. Here is an invitation into a deeper experience of biblical characters, to understand that they were subject to the same wide range of positive and negative emotions as we experience today. Despite their fear or anger, these characters were willing to listen to God and ultimately became models of faith and trust. The reflections here help their voices cross the centuries and be heard by us with undiminished clarity, directness, and power. Juxtaposing Old and New Testament characters in a unique way, the book includes stories of Abraham, Sarah and Hagar, David, Ruth, Mary, the prodigal son, Jesus, the beloved disciple, and more. All of them reveal the demands of discipleship and conversion and help readers recognize God's way of acting in their own lives. Short, simple vignettes allow for quick reading and handy personal use.

Featuring the latest archaeological and historical discoveries, this guide illustrates the people and events that shaped the life of Jesus, from his birth in Bethlehem to his death in Jerusalem.

The purpose of How To Walk In The Footsteps Of Jesus And The Prophets is to enable the reader to look up a Biblical site quickly in its alphabetical form, read the Biblical references, and travel to the site from most major cities in Israel and Jordan. Book jacket.
