Book Overview

Deacon Michael Bulson draws on his experience as a public-service lawyer to present a book of short homilies for all of the Sundays in Cycle B of the liturgical calendar. Rooted in the Scripture readings of that day and combined with his own firm commitment to social justice, Deacon Bulson provides models for other deacons to use for the betterment of their own preaching. This book belongs in the library of every deacon, and deacon candidate and is an excellent treasure trove of ideas for anyone who preaches. Highlights --an excellent ancillary textbook for men in formation to the Order --a good gift from a deacon-wife or child for their father --gives confidence to the deacon who may not be comfortable preaching --each homily is followed by several questions for further discussion which may be helpful in group settings such as Bible study groups or RCIA programs --this is the ONLY book on deacon homiletics on the market +

Timeless Homilies Cycle B - A Review

Deacon Bulson's second volume picks up where the Cycle C volume leaves off. The quality of the Deacon's work has not diminished in its second year. Once again, as I said in the review of the Cycle C book, we who are studying for ordination, as well as those already in orders, have an excellent resource and reference tool to use in our ministry. This is obviously a labor of love on part of Deacon Bulson and the dedication to his ministry certainly comes through in his work. Deacon Bulson has provided a wonderful service here in the spirit of "Diakonos."
