Description
This compact, elegantly designed Book of Hours, the third and final volume in Phyllis Tickle's hugely successful trilogy of prayer books, invites readers to experience the centuries-old spiritual centerpiece of Christian observance, the fixed-hour prayer.
Phyllis Tickle, one of the most influential and respected religion writers in the country today, has made fixed-hour prayer part of her daily observances throughout her life. With the first two volumes of THE DIVINE HOURS, she has inspired people of all denominations to join her in bringing the ancient wisdom of Christianity into their daily lives. PRAYERS FOR SPRINGTIME completes her beautifully crafted literary and liturgical reworking of the sixth-century Benedictine Rule of fixed-hour prayer.
Refreshingly contemporary yet grounded in one of the oldest forms of Western prayer, this third volume celebrates again the hidden power of the Book of Hours, blending prayer and praise in daily springtime devotions. Drawn from the Book of Common Prayer and the writings of the Church Fathers, it also serves as the ideal companion to the New Jerusalem Bible, from which it draws its scriptural readings. With a ribbon marker and colored endpapers, it will find a place in the homes and the hearts of anyone seeking spiritual guidance and renewal.
