Customer Reviews

Good for prayers at home

This is chok full of great prayers for home use. Also helpful for family prayer.

An introduction to the Divine Office

The heart of this book is week one of the psalter. The beauty of the Divine Office is that people from all over the world say the prayer in unison with the Church. This book is great to introduce someone to this beautiful practice of the Church. It also contains other resources such as the rosary, Stations of the Cross, and various other prayers. If you truly enjoy this succinct version of the Divine Office, seek out the abridged Christian Prayer. If you want more, go with the official Liturgy of the Hours 4 volume set.

An excellent and thorough prayer book

This little prayer book is thorough. It contains the Breviary, as well as prayers for all occasions. I especially like the commentaries on spirituality and prayer by those who have formed our heritage--Teresa of Avila, John Henry Newman, and many others. All of this in a compact little book.
