To help you to better prepare for Mass and to open yourself more fully to receive God's word and all that He wants to share with you through the upcoming Mass, we offer you three links for a little different style of reflection from each:  

The first is a reflection on the coming Sunday readings from Dr. Scott Hahn and can be read or listened to.

The second is a reflection from staff at Creighton University from their Online Ministries.

The third is a "break-in" style, covering each reading and the Gospel, breaking in to clarify points as appropriate.
