Not only will this collection provide good resource material for homilies, but it will also serve as a meditation guide for those who will not be preaching God's word. This book is an excellent means for growth in spirituality and an opportunity to follow God's word throughout the liturgical year. These short meditations are successful in that they bring light of God's word to real life situations, and in so doing, make the word of God alive. Fr Cylwicki concentrates his thoughts remarkably well in a few words. At the same time, he remains faithful in directing his readers to the challenge of the Gospel.
