Praying the Liturgy of the Hours by Timothy M. Gallagher, O.M.V.
$16.95
Father Timothy Gallagher, loved for his popular guides to Ignatian spirituality, shares in this informative, inspiring volume his own experiences and insights into the daily prayer of the Liturgy of the Hours, which he has prayed daily for the last 40 years.
All around the
world, everyday, for hundreds of years, Catholics pray the psalms,
and readings from the bible and from tradition, in a formal way
called the Liturgy of the Hours. And like in any meditative practice
there are blissful days and others that are just a dry challenge.
What does it all mean? Can the Liturgy of the Hours, with its hymns,
psalms, readings, and intercessions, become the prayer of every
Christian—priest, religious, and layperson? Can it bring new energy
into our spiritual lives? Fr. Tim shares his experiences praying the
Liturgy of the Hours for the last four decades and invites the reader
into the beauty and possibilities of this simple way of praying.
