Many people like to anchor their daily time of quiet prayer in a Scripture passage. One way of doing this is to reflect prayerfully on the Gospel reading for the following Sunday. In Journeying with Luke, Martin Hogan provides a series of engaging and thought-provoking reflections designed to help those who wish to study the Gospel reading during the liturgical year.

These reflections examine the relevance of Luke’s Gospel for Christians today, and will appeal to both clergy and laity wishing to explore the Word of God in greater depth. The author is particularly interested in Luke’s unique handling of subjects that form the bedrock of Christianity, including the representation of Christ as a ‘compassionate saviour’ who champions the rights of the marginalised and dispossessed; the special place of women; the importance of prayer; and the role of the Holy Spirit.
