40 Days

Lent is traditionally a time of self-denial, but many people also want to "take on" a discipline in this holy season. The regular round of psalms, prayers, and readings from the Bible-known as the Daily Office-is an excellent devotional practice to help the seeker enter into a deeper understanding of this season of renewal and self-examination. Forty Days contains all of the material needed to pray the Office in an accessible, easy-to-use format, in the full beauty of Anglican prayer.
