Who Knows the Colour of God? Homilies and Reflections for Year C

Father Eddy's comments capture the traditional sense of the homily as "an intimate conversation." Through the Word, the homilist has the potential to draw the assembled community into communion with each other and with God. Father Eddy knows that a good homily does this by reaching the deep places in our lives, not by instruction so much as by stories, images, metaphors and phrases that show us a world undistorted by our fears and hurts.
