$ 16.99

You don't live in a cloister or a monastery, but you take your prayer life seriously and want to explore ways to pray regularly and better. The Liturgy of the Hours is one of those ways—but for those of us who find it a little intimidating, Daria Sockey provides a solid overview to this ancient prayer practice. Sockey explores the spiritual riches of the seasons, the saints, and special feast days, which add depth and variety to prayer. She also addresses the practice of praying the Scriptures, especially the psalms, and helps the reader to appreciate the universal beauty of these ancient prayers. Item# B36528

Great resource!

This is a great book to pair with your choice of text or online format for the Liturgy of the Hours. Good explanations of all of the details you need to remember to pray or teach the Divine Office. Highly recommend.

Not what I wanted.

Thought it was going to be a mini version of a priests office. Not just explaining something I don’t have.
