Contemporary Reflections For Praying And Preaching

This is a lively collection of 60 reflections on the readings for Year B. Imaginative and challenging, they carry the reader along in a free and easy style, and are full of memorable images. The author takes us from the homespun to the heavenly, from the ordinary to the extraordinary, in a series of fascinating meditations which will provide a valuable source of ideas and inspiration to enliven a service or sermon and which can also be dipped into at random or used in private prayer by individuals. The reflections have a fresh and contemporary feel and skilfully explore the readings in an illuminating and thought-provoking way.
