Reviewers Note: It is the middle of 2025 and I am not doing a good job of keeping up with this desired goal of mine to write book reviews. I do not want to lower my expectations but I am going to so that I can catch up. This will mean short reviews on the books I read.
The Divine Hours: Prayers for Springtime by Phyllis Tickle
672 Pages
I have enjoyed my liturgical journey. When I finished this book, I finished my first year of Lauds, Sext, and Vespers prayer. As I start year two of my journey, I am writing one thing in the book during the Sext or noontime prayer (love the Kindle Scribe). I have written randomly during the other prayers but my goal is to consistently write something at noon.
I think every Christian should try liturgical prayers at different times in their life. There are days where the prayers are extremely encouraging and helpful. There are other days where there is “nothing” but it is still good to be reminded of God’s kindness morning, noon, and night.
Definitely recommend all the Divine Hours for anyone wanting to try it out.
