I Want to Know Christ: Weekday Reflections for the Liturgical Year 2018/2019

Martin Hogans third book of reflections is an invaluable aid to celebrants or leaders of weekday liturgies and Eucharist. Based on his own liturgies as parish priest of a busy Dublin parish, they give both accurate exegetical information and a homiletic approach directly relevant to the faith and life experience of weekday congregations. Those engaged in liturgy preparation will find them helpful and informative. The authors approach comes both from pastoral experience and personal prayer, giving a refreshing cluster of insights into the daily gospel reading. The calendar of the book helps the busy presider, as the reflections are linked to the readings by calendar date rather than the church calendar. `I read these reflections first thing every morning for prayerful reflection and to give me a few ideas for a short homily on the days gospel words of one Parish Priest.
