Homilies On Luke

No description available

Among such sermons on Luke that have survived, this ACCS volume includes selections from Origen and Cyril of Alexandria as well as church fathers who addressed exegetical issues in theological treatises, pastoral letters, and catechetical lectures.

This book is the fruit of holy hours and meditations on the readings for Sunday Mass throughout the year. The author journeys with us on the road to Jerusalem.

The author walks with Jesus as one of the disciples, trying to answer the question that is the center of the Gospel: "Who do you say that I am?"
