An Introduction to the Homily

An Introduction to the Homily by Robert P. Waznak offers a clear and practical guide to understanding the Sunday homily. Drawing on theology, history, and Church tradition, it explores what a homily is meant to accomplish. The book reviews modern and historical approaches, examines the role of the preacher, explains the origins of the Lectionary, and addresses common practical questions. This work fills a gap by combining solid theory with real-world insights, helping preachers improve their homilies grounded in Catholic teaching and liturgical practice.
