In this book, Bishop Sklba offers a rich collection of ideas -- fire starters -- for preparing brief, spiritually nourishing homilies for daily Eucharist. Like building a campfire, where one ignites the logs with more easily flammable paper, these fire starters are intended to provide the spark for weekday homilies. God's Spirit provides the flame.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach day, the biblical citations and summary phrases for the reading and the gospel plus the refrain from the psalm are provided. After each citation, Bishop Sklba offers a series of meaningful insights from his expertise as a Scripture scholar, prayerful study of Scripture, and many years of preaching and pastoral experience. These brief entries provide knowledge and inspiration that will stimulate personal prayer and spark homily possibilities for the preacher every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFire Starters \u003c\/i\u003ewill support anyone privileged to be called to leadership at weekday celebrations of the Eucharist to prepare for the important ministry of preaching.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eBishop Richard J.
