Book Reviews of A Catholic Book of Hours and Other Devotions
Book Review: vademecum
Summary: 5 Stars
If you find the full Liturgy of the Hours somewhat off-putting with its multiple ribbon page markers, use guides, and high price . . . this could be the book for you! It is very linear and easy to use. About half of the book - The Christian Week - is arranged by day and hours within each day (mattins, morning, noontime, evening, and night prayers) and each day has a theme (the cross, Blessed Virgin, the Lord's Day, etc.). It takes about 15-20 minutes to read through one of the 'hours' in a prayerful, meditative way, and the mattins, noontime, and night 'hours' are slightly shorter. William Storey, emeritus professor of liturgy (Notre Dame) has made a wonderful selection on prayers from Psalms, Gospels and other (documented) sources and has written his own hymns and prayers which are quite lovely. A magnificent way to start saying the hours! The book also contains The Hours of Jesus-Messiah which can be used independently any day of the week. Finally, the last part of the book (150 pages) contains quite a few devotions - Holy Eucharist, Seven Last Words, Holy Spirit, Blessed Virgin, etc.
Summary of A Catholic Book of Hours and Other Devotions
William G. Storey's new compilation of the hours of Catholic daily prayer refreshes and renews the popular devotional practice that has given spiritual sustenance to millions of Christians throughout the centuries. The Liturgy of the Hours is presented in language that is both dignified and contemporary, crafted in accordance with Vatican II's liturgical emphasis and promotion of scriptural prayer. Part 1 of the volume is a "Book of Hours" that provides a guide for prayer in five "hours" throughout the day, to be prayed over the course of a week. It also offers a flexible alternative version of the hours that can be said on any day of the week. Part 2 includes a collection of prayers expressing devotion to the Eucharist, Jesus, Mary, and the Holy Spirit. Throughout the book, readers experience the heart and soul of Catholic Christianity.Christian Living Books
