In The Word on the Street, John Martens brings the Bible to where people live, in the church, at home, at work, and in the broader world. This lectionary commentary for every Sunday of the liturgical year offers readers a way in which the Bible can speak to them in light of their lives today.

John Martens is known for his contributions to The Word, a popular column in America magazine. The Word on the Street is the first book (Year A) in a three-volume series that presents scriptural, liturgical, and preaching commentary for Sundays throughout the year.

John W. Martens is professor of theology at the University of St. Thomas and director of the Master of Arts in Theology program at St. Paul Seminary, School of Divinity, St. Paul, Minnesota.
