This new context calls for a consideration of the liturgical character and setting of the Lectionary readings. \u003ci\u003ePreaching the New Lectionary: Year B\u003c\/i\u003e, offers readers that interpretation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePreaching the New Lectionary\u003c\/i\u003e is unique. First, it employs a literary-liturgical way of interpreting all the readings of each Sunday and major feast of the liturgical year, including the often overlooked responsorial psalm. Second, it explicitly situates the interpretation of each day within the theology of its respective liturgical season. This theology is drawn from the specific themes of the readings that comprise that particular year rather than from more general themes associated with the season. The meaning of the entire season becomes the context for understanding the individual parts of it. Third, the lections are also read in sequential order from the first Sunday of that season to the last. This reading interprets the function of the literary forms, thus providing yet another way of interpreting the riches of the readings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis way of reading and understanding the Lectionary has potential for liturgical ministry. It can quicken the religious imagination of homilists, thus providing fresh new possibilities for liturgical preaching. It offers creative insights for those involved in the liturgical preparation for the celebration of feasts and seasons. It can also act as a valuable resource for liturgical catechesis. The insights included in \u003ci\u003ePreaching the New Lectionary\u003c\/i\u003e contribute toward enhancing the liturgical lives of the faithful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dianne Bergant, Richard N.
