A journey of the soul through the map of Christian time.
The liturgical year, beginning on the first Sunday of Advent and
carrying through the following November, is the year that sets out
to attune the life of the Christian to the life of Jesus, the
Christ.
What may at first seem to be simply an arbitrary arrangement of
ancient holy days, or liturgical seasons, this book explains their
essential relationship to one another and their ongoing meaning to
us today. It is an excursion into life from the Christian
perspective, from the viewpoint of those who set out not only to
follow Jesus but to live and think as Jesus did.
And it proposes to help us to year after year immerse ourselves
into the sense and substance of the Christian life until,
eventually, we become what we say we are--followers of Jesus all
the way to the heart of God. It is an adventure in human growth; it
is an exercise in spiritual ripening.
A volume in the eight book classic series, "The Ancient
Practices, " with a foreword by Phyllis Tickle, General Editor.
