Purpose of sunday readings:
Catholic church has organised sunday readings to educate christians. There are 3 main readings for each sunday. 1st reading, 2 nd reading and 3rd reading. 3 rd reading is only from Gospels while 2 nd reading is generally from new testament writings from early church. While 1st reading is generally from old testament. All 3 readings are selected in such a way, to contemplate, one aspect of God, towards humans.
In order for you to understand,gradually about God and increase your faith, these sunday readings are organised in 3 yearly cycles. In order for you to get good knowledge of God and for you to develop faith, one has to carefully reflect sunday readings in all these 3 years at least once. The gospels of mark,matthew and luke are generally used for cycle 1,cycle 2,cycle 3;
You can study who is God(Father+Son+Holy Spirit) and how they created this world, why fear,sorrow and disagreements presence in our life and what is the treatment for that,etc..,in a cycle of 3 years.
