Good preaching and good ministry can happen only when the minister respects the way that the Word has become flesh in a particular community: the way stories are told, children are raised, history is remembered, and art is made. Wonderfully, this immersion is no chore, it is a delight.

With an emphasis on preaching, but with a concern for all aspects of ministry, the eight authors of the articles in this book explore the blessing that is the Hispanic presence in the United States. Contributors include Rose María Icaza, María Luisa Iglesias, SC, Jaime Lara, Juan J. Sosa, Raúl Gómez, and Victor Alvarez.

Their words contain wisdom for Hispanics, and will open the eyes of non-Hispanics as all of us approach a privileged moment for the Catholic Church in the United States.
