Pope Francis illuminates a new way of experiencing the Gospel: by returning to the original word of God alongside reflections from early church leaders, in search of wisdom on living with meaning, purpose, and strength.Published in English for the first time, Reflections on the Sunday Gospel closely examines ancient reflections by Church Fathers from the Eastern and Western Church that shine light on how necessary, inviting, healing, and powerful the Gospel is--both for early church leaders, and for us today. These reflections exhibit the humility with which these early fathers approached God, and also demonstrate the immense inspiration and comfort provided through these interactions. Ultimately, as Pope Francis guides us through these timeless words, readers will glean how even the giants of the faith needed God as much as we do, and how we can draw near to God no matter where we are. Moving, intimate, and deeply meditative, these reflections are a source of inspiration that comfort and encourage us in our moments of confusion and need.
