A Spirituality for Sunday People

by Fr. Kevin E. Mackin OFM

Overview

Spirituality is growing into our life with God. It is letting the breath or Spirit of God live and breathe and work in us. And the fruits of that are love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control (Gal 5:2223). The Word proclaimed Sunday after Sunday is inspired by God. Jesus, the incarnate Word of God, entered into our history and fully embraced our humanity. In a similar fashion, the Bible is the Word of God, communicated through human authors with their particular worldviews. This collection of homilies reflects on the Word in todays life.
