The author bases on the Popes adhortations Sacramentum caritatis and Verbum Domini. The Pope pays attention to the subject of a homily, its functions and features. Following the spirit of the Second Vatican Council, he recalls the unity of God and His Word,which makes a preacher particularly responsible for what he says. Benedict XVI treats the homily as a part of the liturgy and points out its three functions: integrative, preparatory and updating. The preacher cannot make the Word of God his own ‘property’, spread his private opinions, focus on subjects not inspired by the liturgy or not corresponding with the Church’s teaching. The homily should be concrete, conveyed with the language to be clear for everyone and putting the person of Jesus in the centre. The preacher’s involvement in what he says is very important and the well updated Gospel strengthens the faith, brings joy and spurs into mission.
