A Biblical Morning & Evening Prayer Manual is a reworking of the sixth-century Christian tradition of fixed times for prayer. All entries are taken from various English translations of the Bible. Because the principal times for prayer are morning and evening, this manual is a complete handbook of biblical passages for the modern person, consisting of material taking ten to fifteen minutes to absorb before beginning the day and ten to fifteen minutes when ending the day. Through daily prayer two times a day, one's spirituality is enhanced. After giving basic overviews as to the structure of morning and evening prayer, the author presents thirty-one exercises for each month, along with exercises for those who follow a liturgical calendar for Advent, Christmas, Lent, Easter, and major special days that fall during the year. All that is needed to pray biblically in the morning and the evening is contained in this single volume in its eight chapters.

Reviews for A Biblical Morning & Evening Prayer Manual: A Modern Book of Hours, Ways to Begin and End the Day

""Mornings and evenings, beginnings and endings--they weave the patterns of our lives. In these quiet moments, permit yourself time alone. Pick up this book. Sit with silence and allow Father Boyer's words to lead you. Consider his reflections as you journal your way into prayer."" -- Robin Zeka, retired teacher ""As is so often the case in Boyer's work, this new volume on Morning and Evening Prayer is a careful guide to developing an enhanced level of spirituality. Many people pray, but few can do it effectively or as a spiritual regimen. This volume serves as a guide throughout the liturgical year to incorporate prayer on a regular basis to start and end the day. The incentive Boyer provides for daily reflection can quickly become an ongoing blessing."" --Victor Matthews, professor emeritus, Missouri State University ""Finding time for spiritual reflection and mental health care can be difficult in a hectic and stressful modern life. This simple, single-volume prayer manual will lead you through the daily calming ritual of prayer as well as guide you through the spiritual progression of the liturgical seasons. Well-researched and engaging, use it to bookend your busy days with spiritual nourishment to carry you through the year."" --John Kossler, ecologist, Western Meridian Resources
