Like a Hammer Shattering Rock
hearing Gospels today
Beginning with Hebrew and Christian scriptures and enriched by traditions the world over, McKenna gives substance and depth to these now familiar figures.
Thirty-one icons painted by William Hart McNichols present varying faces of Mary, one of the most loved persons of all time. From the Black Madonna through Our Lady of Sorrows, Megan McKenna's reflections on the imagery of the icons leads us deeper into Mary's devotion and reverence before God, her love, her sorrow, and her compassion. More than simple images, these icons become our hopes and prayers.
the parables of Jesus. Like arrows, these stories pierce the heart of the listener, opening up new understanding of our lives as Christians. Interspersed with these familiar Gospel parables are other stories, traditional and contemporary, which draw the readers deeper into their challenges.
