Designed to assist those who use the Revised Common Lectionary, the Book of Common Prayer, and the Roman Catholic lectionary, it includes brief exegesis of the lessons, homiletical reflections on their themes, and references to culture, media, and contemporary events with practical suggestions for incorporating these into sermons.
