  Mindful Meditations For Every Day Of Lent And Easter

  $8.99

  Based on the daily scripture readings for Lent – following the liturgical cycles for A, B, & C – this book helps you explore the depths of your being, your relationship to Christ, and your association with others during this time of spiritual preparation.

  Each day you focus on one scriptural theme. A reflection then reaches out to us in our busy lives to consider what the Word has to offer us during the holidays. Next, a thought to ponder brings home the message for you – to really apply the reading and reflection to your life. Now say a prayer, an offering and petition to the Lord; finally a practice, a chance to change your daily routine in simple ways to bring God’s love to your life and prepare for the paschal mystery and Easter season.

  Joyful Meditations For Every Day Of Advent And The 12 Days Of Christmas Yea

  $8.99

  “Christian joy is the constant awareness of the loving presence of Jesus, the Son of God, in our hearts. Advent is a time when we open our minds and hearts to search for the light of love, compassion, and peace in the Word of God. It is a time set aside for more intentional reading of the Word of God-reading that leads to personal reflection, prayer, contemplation, and humble service to others. Advent challenges us to remove the barriers of arrogance, sadness, selfishness, and greed that hinder us from welcoming Christ with joy and living in communion with him and our brothers and sisters.” –From the introduction The true meaning of Advent and Christmas finds its voice in Joyful Meditations for Every Day of Advent and the 12 Days of Christmas. This Lectionary-based volume of reflections, prayers, questions to ponder-plus ways to put each daily Scripture reading into practice-brings the Incarnation to life in the true spirit of the season. From the First Sunday of Advent through Christmas and Epiphany for each liturgical year (A, B, and C), this book will help you prepare for and deepen your experience of this holy season.
