“Homilies: The Liturgical Year Narrated by Joseph Ratzinger, Pope,” Cardinal Camillo Ruini introduced this new book on 5 November and said Benedict XVI has a brilliant way of making “the bread of the Word of God and the mystery of our salvation understandable for all.” According to the L’Osservatore Romano, Cardinal Ruini first explained that “for the life and mission of the Church and for the future of the faith, it is absolutely necessary that the dualism between exegesis and theology be overcome,” which the Pope stressed at the recent Synod of Bishops. Cardinal Ruini emphasized the “essentially biblical, patristic, liturgical and historical” nature of the Holy Father’s theology, which has made him “an extraordinary preacher of homilies and an extraordinary catechist who, with the simplicity and substance of his words, makes the bread of the Word of God and the mystery of our salvation understandable to all.” Sandro Magister gives a full review together with a sample homily HERE
I look forward to the book being published in English - it is not clear from the article that it is yet |

Fr Finigan I've quoted Fr.F as he gives a little more information about the book than does the Family Publications site. Looking around that site, there are one or two books I might buy, including Bernadette: Our Lady's Little Servant as I've been searching for a book about Lourdes suitable for children |

Thank you Katy, St John Vianney has always been a hero of mine. Not just because he is the patron Saint of Parish Priests but because I am dyslexic and have always been inspired by his perseverance in his vocation and refusal to surrender to the difficulties of study. |

I ordered the book,(and a few more) using the internet form on the Family Publications site. There has been a slight delay because the form does not ask for "valid from" date on visa cards, only the issue number - which visas don't have. Anyone else thinking of ordering might find telephoning quicker. KatyA |
