Paperback. Zustand: Good. The word homily comes from the Greek word meaning conversation. The stories in Tales For The Masses: Stories Connecting Scripture To Everyday Life largely contain dialogue - realistic conversations between family members, co-workers and neighbors of all ages. Here is a new collection of previously unpublished stories that connect Scripture to contemporary, everyday life. Tim writes for the parishioner who's wondering Why should I listen to you? by imparting stories to which the parishioner can easily relate. Someone may ask you, Who told you about me, anyway? after hearing a homily or sermon with one of these stories in it. In this way, the Scripture message can be seen as relevant to all generations. In this book, author Tim Healy provides homilists and educators material they can use for their own reflection, to help people connect Scripture with what goes on in normal life, and to get people excited about worship because its relevance has been made transparent. Just a few of the chapters included: Murphy the Grump Katie and the Spirit Brother Dave The Trophy Hatred Are You Going to Be Saved? Tim Healy was ordained in 2001. He has been happily married to his wife, Christine, for 37 years. They have three children, Mike, Katie (now Sr. Gregory, at the Abbey of Regina Laudis), and Meredith, and one grandchild, Henry.

Born to brilliant parents one thousand years after a great conflict known as The Mapmaker's War, Secret Riven is an uncanny child who can mysteriously communicate with plants and animals. When her knowledge of an esoteric symbol brings unwelcome attention, gentle, watchful Secret finds acceptance from Prince Nikolas, her best friend, and Old Woman, who lives in the distant woods. When Secret is twelve, her mother, Zavet, receives an arcane manuscript to translate. Zavet begins to suffer nightmares and withdraws into herself. Secret sickens with a fever and awakens able to speak an ancient language, in which her mother is also fluent. Suddenly, Zavet dies--and the manuscript is missing.
