Oh, boy. I can hardly wait to get my hands on it: Treasury of Daily Prayer. As I mentioned a month or so ago, this is going to be a tremendous resource. Just today the CPH team working on the project met to talk about a really nice web site devoted to Treasury. We are pulling together a great mailing on it, including the usual sign-up posters, and a great introductory price for this beautiful book.

I was able to take a look at several sections of the book in final layout. Beautiful! This is truly a first in Lutheran publishing, in any language, let-alone in English. It is the most comprehensive single-volume resource for those who are hungering for a deeper life of intentional prayer, anchored in the treasures of the church’s historic orders of morning and evening prayers, with a keen focus on meditation on the Word of God.

Here is yet another “teaser trailer” to whet your appetite for this resource.
