If your heart is on fire with God's love, your preaching will help listeners encounter Christ and deepen their spiritual lives. And that should be the ultimate goal of a homily. Remembering Why We Preach is a retreat that will help you review your creative energy and spiritual focus. Karla Bellinger-executive director of the Institute for Homiletics at the University of Dallas-and Fr. Michael Connors, CSC-director of the John S. Marten Program in Homiletics and Liturgics at the University of Notre Dame-lead you through an eight-part process of spiritual renewal and skill development that will nourish and enrich you and your preaching for years to come.
