In Teaching Preaching: Forming Today’s Homilists, Dcn. Steve Kramer and Kiki Latimer call preachers to a deeper proclamation of God’s word within the Mass. Like Peter, the homilist must leave the safety of shallow waters and, with faith, “put out into the deep.” Effective preaching requires depth of soul, character, vulnerability, and skill. This book helps the homily reach its four destinations: the Mass, the intellect, the heart, and the will—the domestic Church where the word is lived.

19 SEP 2026 · In this episode of Teaching Preaching, Dcn. Steve Kramer and Kiki Latimer interview Fr. Dominic Ciriaco on his Preaching Ministry (September 17, 2026)
Fr. Dominic is the author of The Painted Pulpit: Corita Kent, Visual Theology and the Practice of Preaching.
In The Painted Pulpit, Dominic G. Ciriaco explores the intersection of art, theology, and preaching through the life and work of Corita Kent, the celebrated “Pop Art Nun.” Drawing on Scripture, the theology of beauty, and contemporary homiletics, Ciriaco demonstrates how Kent’s creative techniques can enrich the preacher’s imagination and transform proclamation into a vivid encounter with the Gospel. Blending theological reflection with practical guidance, this work invites preachers, teachers, and artists to rediscover visual theology as a powerful means of communicating the Word of God.

Your Faith Has Saved You: Homilies for Liturgical Year C–Sundays, Solemnities, and Some Feasts
This book is a collection of homilies crafted for Sundays, solemnities, and significant feasts in the liturgical calendar’s Year C cycle. The book begins with an exploration of the Christology of the Gospel of Luke, emphasizing Jesus as the universal and compassionate Savior, deeply rooted in the fulfillment of God’s promises. It outlines themes central to Luke’s Gospel, such as Jesus’ outreach to the marginalized, His Spirit-filled mission, and the role of prayer in His ministry. The homilies span various liturgical occasions, from Advent through the Solemnity of Christ the King, offering reflections on scripture readings and their applications to contemporary Christian life. Each homily emphasizes theological insights, pastoral care, and practical spirituality. For instance, during Advent, Cush urges believers to rekindle an eschatological focus, while Christmas homilies highlight the paradox of God’s incarnation as a vulnerable child. Themes of mercy, humility, and discipleship pervade, inviting readers to deepen their faith and emulate Christ’s compassion. This work integrates historical, scriptural, and doctrinal elements, making it a rich resource for clergy and laity alike. Its reflections encourage a vibrant, prayerful engagement with the liturgical year, inspiring Christians to live out their faith authentically in daily life.
