These three dozen sermons by the renowned Dominican preacher Bede Jarrett are an invaluable companion for the season of Lent. In Book I, first published in 1932 as No Abiding City, Jarrett shows the special importance of “remembering we are pilgrims” during Lent. At the heart of Book II, originally published in 1945 as The House of Gold, are sermons on marriage, family, and the Christian home, and their unique role in developing and perfecting the virtues. Concluding the book is Jarrett’s masterful preaching for Holy Week, including the Good Friday Discourses, and a sermon for Easter Sunday with its glorious closing exclamation of hope: “The life he brought us shall never die.”
