Još uvijek nam govore

In the book They Still Speak to Us (1994), Friar Bonaventura Duda gathers a collection of his characteristic meditative, homiletic, and theological writings dedicated to the enduring power of God’s Word. The title reflects the author’s fundamental conviction that biblical texts, figures from the Old and New Testaments, and Christian tradition are not merely historical monuments but living messages that speak directly to contemporary people even today. Through an accessible, deeply moving, and theologically grounded style, Duda analyzes key Gospel events, the parables of Jesus, and the lives of saints, connecting them to the everyday challenges, suffering, and questions of human existence. He places special emphasis on the period of the Homeland War—during which the book was published—offering readers much-needed hope, forgiveness, love for one’s neighbor, and trust in Divine Providence. The work is distinguished by Duda’s signature warmth and Franciscan simplicity, serving as an excellent resource for personal prayer, spiritual renewal, and a deeper understanding of Holy Scripture.
