With generosity, Fr. Oyafemi has organized for the hearer of the Sacred Word of God a written record that compels us to revisit our conversation with the Triune God. In these reflective moments, one is drawn towards the art of silence, in which we truly can hear the God who is speaking to us, asking us to respond to Him. This collection of homilies is a treasure that reminds the reader/ hearer of the many ways that we are afforded to receive what God is always freely giving. In this book there are many blessings to be received, many blessings to share, and a great deal to think about. May the readers be delighted and encouraged to keep on talking with our awesome God. REV. DAVID JONES. PASTOR, ST BENEDICT THE AFRICAN EAST, ARCHDIOCESE OF CHICAGO In this, his latest literary endeavor, Fr. Clem demystifies the scriptural readings for Sunday Masses and Solemnities throughout the liturgical year "B" and clearly points out their significance to every believer. He illuminates the contextual implications of those readings in concrete historical human conditions. Fr. Clem's childhood experiences and his seventeen years of priestly life have come out pedagogically in the jokes and stories used as vehicles to convey the message to Gods people in their efforts to maintain their Christian identity in this day and age. If life is truly a journey, this book is a great companion to help us navigate it.------ DR MERCEDES AND DR KEN RUNDLE, MUNSTER, INDIANA
