Title: Food for the Soul: Reflections on the Mass Readings (Cycle B)
Author: Peter Kreeft
Description:
Vatican II called the Bible "the support and energy of the Church," "the pure and everlasting source of spiritual life," and "the food of the soul." Yet, for many Catholics, their engagement with Scripture is often limited to what they hear at Mass. InFood for the Soul (Cycle B) , the third book in a riveting three-part series, celebrated philosopher Peter Kreeft invites the faithful―clergy and laity alike―to a heart-to-heart relationship with Christ the Word through the Word of the Scriptures.
Moving through the first reading, second reading, and Gospel reading for each Sunday and other major liturgical celebrations throughout the three-year lectionary cycle, Kreeft brings the Mass readings to life with his trademark blend of wit and wisdom, challenging readers to plant their souls in the rich soil of Scripture and sharpen their minds with the Sword of the Spirit. Whether you are a layperson looking for additional insight on the readings at Mass, or a priest or deacon looking for inspiration for a homily,Food for the Soul is a gift to the whole Church from one of today's greatest Christian writers.
Review
"Peter Kreeft is a most gifted theologian, but more importantly, he is a man of faith. With this latest book of reflections on the Scripture readings for Mass, he is sharing with us the lights born of a life of prayer and faithful discipleship. It is truly an expression of what Hans Urs von Balthasar calledkniende Theologie , 'theology on the knees.' In addition to the solid content, Peter Kreeft's artfully expressed thought never fails to inspire."
--Cardinal Seán O'Malley, Archbishop of Boston
"Peter Kreeft has no equal with respect to making the deepest truths shine forth with aphoristic brilliance. He is the perfect person to place in the pulpit. Kreeft on the readings for Mass is a match made in heaven."
--Joseph Pearce, Editor of theSt. Austin Review and author ofWisdom and Innocence: A Life of G.K. Chesterton
"Reading this series is like joining the masterful Peter Kreeft for coffee after Mass to talk about the readings. It's a wonderful resource that Catholics can pick up and return to again and again throughout the liturgical year, full of wisdom from one of the top guiding lights of our era in the Catholic world."
--Dr. Edward Sri, theologian and author ofA Biblical Walk through the Mass
