Description

This 840-page book consists of 400 Reflections (Homilies) based on the Word of God. These are arranged based on the Gospels of Sundays Cycle B and all the Weekdays. A Gospel Reference Index and a Thematic (topical) Index gives easy and ready access to the content. There are over 225 themes and nearly 500 anecdotes/stories/illustrations. The book is resourceful in understanding the Word of God (Gospels) and in preparing sermons, recollections, talks, community and family prayers, and motivational sessions. It is also a great aid for Lectio Divina – the ancient method of praying with the Scriptures.

Reviews on the REFLECTION CAPSULES

“An inspiration and blessing to hundreds of people daily. Priests, Religious and Lay People will find in it an immense source of inspiration” – Archbishop Peter Machado, Archdiocese of Bangalore

I have been personally using these reflections. What I liked most in these reflections, there were anecdotes and real historical examples to draw lessons and conclusions on the readings. – Archbishop Emeritus Bernard Moras, Archdiocese of Bangalore

“… a precious guide for everyone who wants to make the Word of God a joy to their heart and light to their feet. As we read through these pages, our hearts are edified and the love for God is stirred. – Fr. Augustine Vallooran VC, Director, Divine Retreat Centre, Muringoor

There are only few and rare books written more with the anointed hearts of the authors rather than with their hands and pens… and I would say that Jijo’s book is one of them! …they provide answers to the present moral, ecclesial, cultural and existential problems of our time. I strongly recommend this book … for preparing effective, vibrant, eloquent and anointed homilies, talks, classes, seminars etc. – Fr James Manjackal Msfs, Global Missionary Of Evangelization

“… takes us to the hidden, mysterious, sanctifying, and transformative power of God’s Word by weaving his personal and pastoral experience, reflections, and insights on God’s Word as well the teachings and wisdom of spiritual masters and
contemporary writers. – Fr. Abraham Vettuvelil, Msfs, Superior General, Missionaries of St Francis de Sales

“…stirs the hearts of various people through original, hermeneutic and very exhilarating reflections on numerous passages in the Scripture. – Fr. Benny Koottanal Msfs, Provincial, South West India Province of the MSFS

I recommend your initiatives… In all times, I found your reflections quite rich of both theology and practical spiritual guidance. – Archbishop Gervas Nyaisonga, Archdiocese of Mbeya, Tanzania
