I have known and worked with Father Francis Martin for 15 years. He has been a close colleague in our work in Evangelicals and Catholics Together. While he is a great scholar and thinker, he is one of the most gentle, loving people I have met anywhere. No matter how accomplished he has become in his intellectual and theological pursuits, he has never lost the pastor’s heart. I have learned much from him, and I can encourage you to draw on the
rich resources Father Martin offers. I can think of no one better to
teach Catholics seeking a closer relationship with Christ than a man
who has devoted his life to it so ably. I have known Fr. Francis Martin for many years as a lecturer and a
good friend. His knowledge of the Scripture is like the spring of living
water that Jesus refers to in John Chapter 7. I whole-heartedly recommend
these talks. They will enrich your mind and draw you closer to the Father
through Jesus, His Beloved. Whenever I have a question about Sacred Scripture, the person I turn
to without fail is Father Francis Martin. He is an unparalleled scholar,
a consummate teacher and preacher, and a man of deep prayer. His profound
understanding and presentation of Scripture makes it plain how "God
the Father wills to give us birth by the Word of truth" (James
1:18). What good news to hear that Fr. Francis Martin's daily preaching on
the lectionary as well as his longer talks on biblical themes are now
readily available through his website. Fr. Francis' teaching on the
scripture is academically sound, spiritually enlightened and pastorally
applicable. It would be hard to overestimate the importance of Fr. Francis'
teaching to the life of individual Christians as well as the life of
the Church today. Highly recommended.
