Light on the Gospels (eBook, PDF)

A Reader's Guide

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

"The key to understanding the Gospels," says Father McKenzie, "is to read them carefully and inquisitively, then reread them, and reread them..." Perhaps never before has there been such a need for a mature Christian faith, based solidly on the scriptures, that will stand against the secularity of the times. And perhaps never before has the work of scripture scholars been so helpful in giving the ordinary reader an understanding of the scriptures that is pertinent to his or her life. McKenzie, without being polemical or technical, provides a brief and readable guide to the Gospels that will deepen and enrich Christian faith.
