About this title

Synopsis

Exploring the Sunday Lectionary: A Teenager's Guide to the Readings - Cycle B is an engaging guide designed to help teens explore the Sunday readings in a group setting or alone as a guide to personal reflection. Each session focuses on a particular Sunday. The authors provide background on each of the readings to put them in context, then ask a series of questions, which guide teens to a deeper understanding and appreciation of the scriptures. Some of the questions help young people connect the readings with situations they face in everyday life. An innovative Taking My Scripture Home section challenges them to act upon the truths they find in the Sunday readings. Advantages of this book: ―covers all three readings as well as the Responsorial Psalm ―provides factual background information describing the context of the reading ―explores each reading in depth ―gives two distinct experiences of scripture study: questions for a group and private reflection questions ―can be used in a small or large group setting or as a personal resource ―easy to facilitate ―inexpensive †
