Opis

This book offers an abundance of insightful information on the nine miracle stories in Cycle B of the Revised Common Lectionary. Brauninger intentionally avoids presenting a ready-made sermon -- instead, she invites readers to discover hidden implications by exploring the gap between the back then and the now. Outlines of the action reveal the pivotal points in each story, and fictional interviews help readers get into the minds of the characters -- thus connecting their human experiences with the daily struggles we encounter in faith and discipleship. Brauninger's unique approach generates questions, spurs the thinking process, and allows the Word to come alive. Five sections are devoted to each miracle story: * Text -- the entire scripture text * What's Happening? -- a synopsis of points of action * Connecting Points - Conversations -- imaginary dialogues with main characters and an occasional bystander * Words -- an examination of significant terms * Gospel Parallels
