Mystagogy, or sustained reflection on baptism and the Eucharist, is the method of postbaptismal catechesis used in the R.C.I.A. In Ambrose of Milan's Method of Mystagogical Preaching, Craig Satterlee provides a method of mystagogical preaching for today's Church by looking at the sermons of Ambrose of Milan. Confronted by a culture that increasingly questions the connection between Word and Sacrament, and liturgy and mission, Saterlee looks back at the catechumenate of the early Church, who took seriously the fact that they lived in a culture at odds with the Christian faith. Their biblical importance and participation in the Christian life, continues to hold great potential for the future of the Church today.
