Synopsis:
A collection of morning and evening prayers, a different one for every day and night of the year, drawn from the treasury of Christian prayer throughout the ages.
A Morning and Evening Prayerbook provides a framework for prayerful devotions with two prayers for each day of the year. The morning prayers are ideal for encouraging your heart for the approaching day’s activities and challenges while the evening prayers will help you close each day with reverence, gratitude, and reflection. Selected to mirror the seasons and the liturgical calendar, the prayers are intended not to replace your personal, spontaneous prayers but to serve as a springboard for them.
Editors Jeanie and David Gushee have collected inspiring contributions from Protestant, Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox sources; from all continents; from the Old Testament; and from each century of Christian history. A Morning and Evening Prayerbook will enrich your commitment to God and personal connection to the Christian tradition and the entire church.My Rating:
Prayer is an essential thing to the life of a Christian and for many it's not an easy thing to do. I know for myself, prayer can seem intimidating at times. Thankfully, there are many books out there that help you with prayer when you are stuck and this book is one of them. This book has two prayers per day -- one for the morning and one for the evening.
I love that each prayer is given a reference so that I can further look up information on the person that wrote the prayer. Some of the prayers are very basic and some are more intricate. Either way, I find this to be a very helpful book to prompt my prayers.
The design of the book is stunning as well. With it's deckle edges and blue and gold color scheme it makes for a vintage style book. Great to set on coffee tables.
