Overview
“As every picture needs its backgrounds, so the joys of Easter require the gloom of Good Friday.” These 30 homilies from Alfred Mortimer are useful helps for meditation during the Easter season and as aids for preachers. Mortimer’s reflections on Christ’s resurrected life counterbalances the abundance of literature available for Lent.
