Refreshed by the Word, Cycle A is an insightful companion that will enliven for readers that lectionary readings of each Sunday of the Church year. For every Sunday of each liturgical season, the author offers prayer suggestions, reflections and provocative faith questions that will bring meaning and purpose to people’s everyday lives and activities.
Influenced by the vision of the International Office of RENEW, under whose auspices it was written, this book provides a source of scripture-based faith sharing that can be used by those who are members of seasonal prayer groups; those who share a ministry and gather together for meetings, or those who belong to ongoing small faith sharing communities. Individuals will likewise benefit from Father O’Brien’s perceptive observations and keen sense of outreach and commitment to others.
