"In Sundays under the Southern Cross, Mary Coloe's contemporary gospel reflections offer thoughtful introductions to the Sunday gospels for Years A, B and C and additional Solemnities and Feasts of the Australian Church year. Mary reflects on the historical context in which the authors for each year - Matthew, Mark and Luke - were writing and extends a warm invitation to a greater intimacy with Jesus through knowledge and understanding. Her commentaries on the Lenten and Easter gospel readings from John offer rich insights into his profound and sometimes mysterious evangelist."--Back cover.

The special work to which I had been appointed at Fair View was the school work; although my instructions given by Superintendent Roberts on the eve of my departure for Africa gave full liberty to evangelize as well as to teach. My manual read something like this: "Do not be satisfied to be merely a school teacher. Be an evangelist. Go out to the kraals, preaching as you go. Make the salvation of souls your one and only business." -from "Chapter XIII: My School" The missionary work of Westerners in Africa is long and storied-here's another tale of the long-term attempts to convert a continent. Privately published, this is one woman's account of her Christian work in Zulu country, from her childhood-she was born in 1863-on farms in Iowa and Kansas, where she had a youthful brush with death that led to her conversion to an active Christianity, to her return home after long years doing the Lord's work. The time in between is fraught with culture shock: her difficulties in learning the Zulu language, her disdain for Zulu tradition and mythology, even a particular scorn for the food she found unpalatable. Stolid and unbending, this is a curious document of a less enlightened time, a firsthand look at the mindset of a bygone time.

"Mary Coloe's brief, contemporary Australian gospel reflections offer readers thoughtful introductions to the Sunday gospels of the liturgical year. Matthew is the focus of Year A. This small book completes her series on the three years of lectionary readings. Mary writes her reflections mindful of the historical context of Matthew's writing. She points out that Matthew was writing, after the destruction of the Temple, for a Jewish community split between the Pharisees who focused on Jewish Law (Torah) and the third generation of Jesus' followers who believed that Jesus, God's appointed one and Son, had an authority greater than Moses and the old Law. At the same time, this Christian community was opening out to non-Jews, the Gentiles. Matthew therefore seeks to portray Jesus in a way that reflects and cherishes his community's Jewish origins while at the same time arguing against the Synagogue leaders of his time. In this context he shows that Jesus is 'God with us', 'Emmanuel'. At a time when our world is beset with conflict, Jesus' promise, 'I will be with you always' is the Good News we need to hear. This is an excellent resource for personal use or for groups in schools and parishes."--Provided by publisher.
