Synopsis

This an audio book containing liturgies for the ordinary events of daily life--liturgies such as "A Liturgy for Feasting with Friends" or "A Liturgy for Laundering" or "A Liturgy for the First Hearthfire of the Season." These are ways of reminding us that our lives are shot through with sacred purpose even when, especially when, we are too busy or too caught up in our busyness to notice.

About The Author

The remote descendant of Scottish horse-thieving ancestors, Douglas Kaine McKelvey has already bested the dubious achievements of his predecessors by authoring six published books and penning lyrics for more than 300 songs recorded by a variety of artists including Kenny Rogers, Switchfoot, and Jason Gray. Douglas recently published "Every Moment Holy: New Liturgies for Daily Life" which is available on Amazon.com and at www.EveryMomentHoly.com. He is currently writing a fantasy novel set in 19th Century America, pursuing publication of a YA sci-fi novel, and developing a board game. McKelvey was born in New Hampshire and raised in East Texas, but now dwells in the long shadows somewhere south of Nashville with his Norwegianish wife. He has three half-Norwegianish adult daughters and two sons-in-law. Douglas also has a dog. And a beard.

Goodreads review by Janae

I love liturgies and this book did not disappoint. The specific prayers for the mundane moments of our life were beautiful and grounding. Sometimes the liturgies were so specific I couldn't enjoy it but there are many beautiful prayers in this book......more
