Random Reflections

For over fifty years, Father Barry Tobin has been a respected parish priest of the Archdiocese of Melbourne.

Collected here in print for the first time are some of his pastoral reflections, homily notes, and short magazine articles. His writing draws on history, current events, pilgrimages in the Holy Land, popular films, and the lives of great Australians, sharing spiritual insights from each.

I've known Father Barry for many years and find his homilies inspirational. When he approached me to publish a collection of them, I was more than delighted to do so, as I believe they will touch the hearts of many. I strongly recommend this book for reflection and contemplation.
