Dawn to Dark

In this fresh compilation that draws heavily from Scripture, the Book of Common Prayer, and writings of the Church Fathers, Dawn to Dark invites readers to transform their prayer lives as they observe the ancient Christian practice of fixed-hour prayer. Though this book relies on written prayers as a medium for deeper communion with God, it is meant to include and strengthen a person's own freely expressed personal prayers. Participants of Dawn to Dark prayer will experience a practice that is liturgical yet lively, communal yet deeply personal. Broken into four parts, the book's design is intentionally compact and flexible for readers both young and old. From an introduction that provides historical context for the importance of fixed-hour prayer to two sections of fixed-hour prayers that readers can practice throughout the day, author R. Douglas Jones has created a book that is fully customizable and accessible.Read less
