Living God's Word: Reflections on the Weekly Gospels, Year A

To help us better understand the Sunday and weekday Gospelreadings, Father David has collected his reflections for the lectionary year Ain this handy book. Each brief reflection is based on the Gospel of theparticular Sunday or weekday. For each weekday, he has chosen one line from theday's Gospel and offered one question to stimulate reflection.
 
To help us integrate the Gospel into our daily lives,Father David provides in a section called "Living This Week's Gospel" fivesuggested responses we can make to the Sunday Gospel each week. He bases hissuggestions on five words which summarize our identity as Christians:Christian, Disciple, Prophet, Priest, King. Finally, he adds a prayer that wecan say all week, asking for the grace to live by the values proposed in theSunday reflection.
