Description
Blessed Weakness contains Dom Andre's homilies on the Gospel passages for Year B of the church's three-year liturgical cycle. These homilies reflect Dom Andre's spiritual insights about the wisdom in the teachings of Christ. The title conveys a favorite theme of Dom Andre's: God's special love for humans in their weakness, manifested in Jesus' leaving behind his glory to become one of us in weakness, living among and ministering to the poor. Contemplative reflection on these Gospel passages and on Dom Andre's insights will provide a path for the reader and hearer to seek a deeper union with God.
