This book is a product of diligent, conscientious and prayerful study of the sacred Scriptures by the author, Rev. Fr. Emmanuel Okami. It is an inspirational book, highly enriching, sound in catechetical teaching and reflections that are expedient to the proper understanding of the liturgical daily readings of Cycles A and B, or Years 1 and 2. I sincerely recommend this book to all, particularly shepherds of GOD'S flock, who truly and really intend to "smell like the sheep." The book is worth having because of its expository and thematic content which is pastoral in its approach based on its scriptural focus, theological analysis and practical relevance to pastoral ministry and faith deepening.
