This compact, beautifully designed Book of Hours, the third in Phyllis Tickle's trilogy of prayerbooks, invites contemporary readers to experience the centuries-old spiritual centerpiece of Christian observance, the fixed-hour prayer.

The Divine HoursTM is simply the best book for people who want to work prayer into the fabric of their daily life."
--Bert Ghezzi, author of Voices of the Saints

"A welcome remedy for the increasing number of lay Christians who have rediscovered the Daily Offices . . . Tickle puts each day's prayers, psalms, readings, and refrains--everything you need--in one place . . . The rhythm that Tickle's book establishes gives one a stronger sense of participating in an ancient, worldwide but very personal liturgy."
--Nora Gallagher, Beliefnet.com, and author of Things Seen and Unseen: A Year Lived in Faith
