The Word Into Life, Year a by A Redemptorist Pastoral Publication

Leading others to Christ is the most important work you will do in your life. The Word Into Life is a valuable tool that helps leaders of Christian initiation groups break open the word of God proclaimed in the Sunday liturgy. Whether group participants are adults or adolescents, The Word into Life offers commentary and questions for discussion to bring the Sunday Scriptures alive.

Additionally, The Word Into Life can be used to supplement Liguori's Journey of Faith for Adults RCIA program. Relevant Journey of Faith lessons are listed at the end of each reflection. These include an overarching lesson(s) that ties most closely to the Scripture readers as well as several additional lessons related to the theme.

Journey of Faith was updated in 2016, and several lessons were added or moved. To ensure you can continue to use this book with the new Journey of Faith, we have taken each day's themes and updated the classic Journey of Faithreferences with the new lessons, creating an Appendix.

Included in The Word Into Life are:

• The readings for all Sundays of the liturgical year A, Advent through Christ the King
• The readings for the Easter Triduum
• The readings for those occasional Sundays that supersede Ordinary Time Sunday readings
• Scripture commentary for every set of readings
• Discussion and/or reflection questions for every set of readings
• Every set of readings is cross-referenced to the Journey of Faith catechetical lessons
• A brief collection of short gathering prayers and dismissal prayers for each phase of the initiation process
• A thematic index
