Between the Ambo and the altar
Book Description
Between the Ambo and the Altar serves as an essential companion for those seeking to deepen their understanding of Catholic liturgical preaching and spiritual reflection. This thoughtful volume, the second in a comprehensive three-part series focusing on Year B of the liturgical calendar, bridges the sacred space between Scripture proclamation and Eucharistic celebration.
Guerric DeBona guides readers through a rich exploration of how Sunday readings connect with the Roman Missal's Third Edition, offering fresh perspectives on the relationship between biblical texts and liturgical worship. Each Sunday throughout the year receives careful attention through three distinct approaches: scriptural exploration, liturgical connections, and practical homiletic guidance.
The book invites readers into meditative engagement with the language of the Missal while revealing meaningful parallels to the Sunday Lectionary readings. DeBona provides concrete strategies for understanding core themes and images that emerge from this sacred dialogue between Scripture and liturgy.
Whether you are involved in ministry, seeking to enhance your liturgical understanding, or simply drawn to deeper spiritual reflection on the Church's yearly cycle of readings, this resource offers structured pathways for encountering the profound meanings embedded within Catholic worship. The author's approach encourages readers to savor the unfolding richness of God's word as it moves through the seasons of faith, creating space for both intellectual understanding and spiritual growth.
