We all cherish the stories of our growing up, our family events, our relationships with loved ones. These stories give us a sense of where we've been, and, most importantly, help us to determine where we are going. The Bible is just such a collection of stories - the lived experience of a people that informs the lives of people today. Biblical Meditations for the Easter Season focuses on the stories provided by the Church's cycle of readings for the seven weeks of the Easter season. The author provides a meditation that combines scriptural scholarship with insights from contemporary life.
Readers who profited from Father Stuhlmueller's previous book, Biblical Meditations for Lent, will find in this current volume the same blend of solid Scripture study and sharing of the author's own prayer experience. As Most Rev. Charles Buswell, Bishop of Pueblo, notes in his introduction, "Many will be helped greatly to come to or advance in Christian maturity as they make use of Biblical Meditations for the Easter Season."
