The book, “Air Becomes Breath: Reflections on Sunday Gospels”, is a collection of reflections on Sunday Gospels. The reflections are structured into three parts: Context, Theme, and Insights for Life. These reflections were initially published in the magazines Karunikan and Smart Companion. The book is dedicated to the readers who have supported the author’s writing.  The author, Dr. Jacob Naluparayil, drew insights from Rev. Dr. Abraham Nellikkal on Luke’s Gospel and from Rev. Dr. Joseph Pamplany on John’s Gospel. The work has been blessed by several Cardinals, Archbishops, and Bishops. The book is being published by Media House Books.
