This is an excellent resource for scripture based Faith Sharing groups. Margaret Ralph does an excellent job in contextualizing the readings to time/place.....thought provoking. Enhances application of Gospel message to personal lives. Presently using her Cycle C edition with great success.

I have really enjoyed this resource. I used it to write scripture classes for the local prison and use it when I am the one who does the homily at the prison. It is just a great product that takes all readings in Biblical context.

The Lectionary is very well written and easy to understand. It helps with a deeper meaning of the next Sunday Mass before it occurs. It also has thought provoking questions to assist you with fully understanding what you've just read.
