Harrington, SJ, helps people in the pew uncover both the theological and literary beauty of this Gospel while he effectively bridges the gap between modern biblical scholarship and Christian spirituality.Meeting St. Luke Today includes essential background information on Luke the Evangelist; a brief but complete narrative analysis of the third Gospel; a close look at how Luke likely interpreted various traditions surrounding several key events in Jesus' ministry; an overview of 10 Lucan themes; and, importantly, suggestions for ways we might "pray" the Gospel and live it out in our daily lives.
