About this item
Discover the timeless wisdom of Thomas Merton, one of the most influential contemplative voices of the twentieth century, in A Book of Hours. This beautifully curated collection draws from Merton’s most lyrical and prayerful writings, offering a rich resource for daily prayer and contemplation that embraces the ancient monastic tradition of “praying the hours.”
Editor Kathleen Deignan has carefully selected and arranged passages from Merton’s vast works into a rhythm of prayers for dawn, day, dusk, and dark for each day of the week. Enriched with psalms, prayers, readings, and reflections, this book creates a sanctuary for quiet contemplation and divine connection amid the busyness of daily life.
A Book of Hours draws from Thomas Merton’s rich writings and blends elements of Christian liturgy to guide both personal and communal prayer. It includes: Verses, hymns, and antiphons to invite prayer and reflection throughout the day. Psalms, canticles, and litanies for deep spiritual dialogue, praise, and insight. Readings and responsories for lectio divina, with Merton’s writings offering spiritual guidance. Exhortations and meditations to inspire and challenge us. The ancient examen practice, helping us reflect on our thoughts, habits, and true self.
Let A Book of Hours guide you into moments of peace and spiritual renewal, inviting you to pause, reflect, and rediscover the sacred in every moment.
