Lent is just a preparation and spiritual warm-up for Easter. Now that it is Easter, it is time to get down to exercising the Christian life in full. It makes sense, therefore, to keep setting aside some time for reading about the mysteries we celebrate and how we can live them out. Here then are some books and music that might be helpful. For further suggestions, check out last year’s recommendations.

1. Commentary on Saint John the Apostle and Evangelist: Homilies 48-88 by St. John Chrysostom
2. The Resurrection: A Biblical Study by François-Xavier Durrwell CSsR
3. The Old Evangelization: How to Spread the Faith Like Jesus Did by Eric Sammons
4. Understanding Early Christian Art by Robin M. Jensen
5. Thomas Tallis: The Complete English Anthems by The Tallis Scholars, directed by Peter Phillips
