Common Prayer Pocket Edition helps individuals and today's diverse
church pray together across traditions and denominations. With an ear to
the particulars of various liturgical prayer traditions, and using an
advisory team of liturgy experts, the authors have created a tapestry of
prayer that celebrates the best of each tradition. This convenient and
portable book also includes tools for prayer scattered throughout to aid
those unfamiliar with liturgy and deepen the prayer life of those
already familiar with liturgical prayer. Common Prayer Pocket Edition
adds new prayers for compline (late evening) and for individual use,
such as prayers for travel, protection, and various blessings. It
includes a table of days and readings for the morning prayers as well as
an annotated list of saints and days to remember. Churches and
individuals who desire a deeper prayer life-and those familiar with
Shane Claiborne and New Monasticism-will enjoy the tools offered in this
book as a fresh take on liturgy.
