Martin Hogan’s third book of reflections is an invaluable aid to celebrants or leaders of weekday liturgies and Eucharist. Based on his own liturgies as parish priest of a busy Dublin parish, they give both accurate exegetical information and a homiletic approach directly relevant to the faith and life experience of weekday congregations. Those engaged in liturgy preparation will find them helpful and informative. The author’s approach comes both from pastoral experience and personal prayer, giving a refreshing cluster of insights into the daily gospel reading.
