St.
Paul exhorts us to “pray without ceasing” — a beautiful goal
that sounds daunting, even impossible. But wait! These pages break
open an authoritative, time-tested method that countless laymen still
use today to pray with constancy and thereby soar to the heights of
holiness.
It’s
called the Liturgy of the Hours.
Also
known as the Divine Office or the breviary, the Liturgy of the Hours
is an important vehicle for advancing in the spiritual life — a
step that any serious Catholic, with the help of Fr. Timothy
Gallagher, can take today.
Relying
on insights from popes and saints, as well as on his five decades’
experience praying the Liturgy of the Hours, Fr. Gallagher opens your
eyes to this spiritual treasury and shows you how, by means of its
sanctifying rhythm, it will help you progress on your spiritual
journey. Soon, you will be among the multitude of Catholics who pray
the Hours daily and are richly blessed by the flow of graces these
prayers yield.
From
the wise Fr. Gallagher, you’ll learn:
- The basic elements of the Liturgy of the Hours
- How to incorporate them into your day, no matter how busy it may be
- How the Hours will revitalize your daily prayers and prevent them from becoming routine
- How they will extend the graces you obtain at Mass into your entire day
