Hearers of the Word

Notes on the Sunday readings

The notes and commentaries are offered in four formats.

1. PDF — the full notes, including weekday introductions, 5 pages.
2. The gospel notes only in audio format.
3. The gospel notes presented in a portable format suitable for smartphones and tablets.
4. YouTube / Zoom video: A further exploration of the Gospel (usually) from a different angle.

On another page (Online Lectures) the presentations approach the Gospel from our context and try to go a little more deeply into the text.

From Justin Martyr

On Sunday we have a common assembly of all our members, whether they live in tthe reader has finished, the president of the assembly speaks to us; he urges everyone to imitate the examples of virtue we have heard in the readings. Then we all stand up together and pray.

On the conclusion of our prayer, bread and wine and water are brought forward. The president offers prayers and gives thanks to the best of his ability, and the people give assent by saying, “Amen.” The eucharist is distributed, everyone present communicates, and the deacons take it to those who are absent.

The Sunday index takes you to the portable format of the Gospel notes, suitable for smartphones and tablets.
