Shorter Christian Prayer: The Four-Week Psalter of the Liturgy of the Hours Containing Morning Prayer and Evening Prayer With Selections for the Entire Year (Leather Bound) Review

Like an earlier reviewer, I also own the four-volume set of the Liturgy of the Hours.I do enjoy the additional readings and the somewhat nerdy activity of finding my way around the complete liturgy. But for pure prayer value, "Shorter Christian Prayer" is the book.It has the entire four-week psalter for the key prayers of the day, Morning Prayer and Evening Prayer, as well as the same Night Prayers as the larger volumes. What it is missing are the special readings and intercessions for feasts and memorials--but even those special days are built around the same psalms printed here.For me, on my commute, Shorter Christian Prayer is less distracting and much nicer in the hand than the standard Christian Prayer or Liturgy of the Hours.It has larger print than either.It has the gospel canticles printed on the inside covers, a brilliant idea.Plus it is a LOT cheaper.

Product Description:
"Seed Hope. Flower Peace."Decades after the end of the Vietnam War, and years since the start of the Iraq War, these words by Jesuit priest, poet, peace activist, and Nobel Peace Prize nominee Daniel Berrigan still resonate. Prayer for the Morning Headlines: On the Sanctity of Life and Death pairs select Berrigan poems with luminous photographs of cemetery statuary by Adrianna Amari.In this beautiful collection, the evocative images combine to form a meditation on the profound impact of the loss of any life, and bear witness to lasting grief, memory, and love. As noted historian Howard Zinn states in his eloquent introduction, "...it was in Baltimore that Adrianna Amari took her extraordinary photographs of sculptures scattered through the city. It is all there, as in Berrigan's poems- life and death, the prayer that comes with commitment, the hope that comes with resistance, the visions of a world where peace and justice prevail."At times tranquil, at times dramatic, the words and images in Prayer for the Morning Headlines always implore readers to love one another and fight war no more.

A Shorter Morning and Evening Prayer (Vinyl Bound) Review

This is an excellent prayer book for those who want to pray the full Litury of the Hours (Divine Office) but have difficulty with the size and scope of the full Office. A Shorter Morning and Evening Prayer allows one to start out slow as they learn to adjust their schedule to permit focused prayer time. The length of the prayers makes it easier to develop a regular routine that can lead to deeper devotion and extended prayer time. A great book for beginners!

Liturgy of the Hours - Morning & Evening Prayer: December 2009 (Kindle Edition) Review

This kindle book was the best gift in our house this Christmas!My brother is 82 years old, a Catholic priest, and suffering from low vision due to macular degeneration.We gave him the kindle for Christmas and its enlarged print was a great help to him.The arrival of John L. Davis' "Liturgy of the Hours" made the gift just about perfect.He has been unable to pray his breviary prayers in recent months, and has found this particular version to be particularly inspiring.What a disappointment to find that January is unavailable!Please do whatever you can to help us get this book for those who so appreciate it!I, too, would gladly purchase the whole year at once.
