O knihe
Drawn from the fine insights found in biblical interpretations, literary works, films, historical contexts, contemporary trends in human experiences, and major theological themes, the author tries to connect the Sunday gospel readings to people's lives in light of the Scriptures. He regularly makes use of literary works as a springboard or potential approach to explore the dynamics of Jesus' messages especially on human relationship and how they make sense to specific situations where it might help illuminate the issue.
On bits and pieces - along with crooked lines is a compilation of homilies that attempts to share life experiences in relation to the Word of God. It is a form of sharing that provides a perspective of opening ourselves to others on the reality of God in our respective lives. It is looking at individual's significance vis-a-vis others where we find the wherewithal to carry on while we shape the dimension of humanity being addressed to our call of discipleship.
"If to be human is to live in community, then to alienate ourselves from community, in monologue, is to cut ourselves from our own humanity." As Christians, our interconnectedness aims to unite us in harmony and enables us to strive more deeply for the wholeness of the person. It is implicit in our calling that we are made for others -brothers and sisters. As Himes points out, "Belonging, respect, friendship, forgiveness, love are essential to human well-being, but they are not easily addressed by the language and concept of rights."
