Every hour is holy, every day is sacred. We sometimes think prayer belongs only in certain places on certain days. This book calls us to set prayer free from these constraints, allowing it to flow out through the hours of every workday, sanctifying the ordinary rhythm of our modern lives: waking upgoing to workbreaking for lunchending the workdaythe evening hoursgoing to bed Ray Simpson gives us twenty original prayers, written in the Celtic tradition or patterned after ancient Celtic prayers, for each of these intervals. Like generations of earlier followers of Christ, we too can use prayer to bless the rhythm of our daily lives, infusing the hours with the awareness of the One who gives us Life. These small pauses throughout the day will make us ever more aware that the Kingdom of Heaven is a constant and present reality, hidden just beneath the veil of everyday life.
Autorenporträt
Ray Simpson was educated at Woking Grammar School for Boys, London University and London College of Divinity. He was ordained into 'the one, holy, catholic and apostolic church' at Lichfield Cathedral, founded by Saint Chad of Lindisfarne in 669. In 1978, he was uniquely commissioned by Anglican, Baptist, Catholic, Methodist, United Reformed Churches and The Religious Society of Friends, with a Salvation Army band and 'the right hand of fellowship' from Community and Pentecostal churches to establish 'one family of Christians for one neighbourhood' at Bowthorpe, Norwich, in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. He is the Founding Guardian of the dispersed International Ecumenical Community of Aidan and Hilda. The CORE of CAH comprises followers of the way from Catholic, Orthodox, Reformed and Emerging expressions of the worldwide Body of Christ and other faith communities. He lived on England's Holy Island of Lindisfarne for over two decades where he established the Celtic Christian Library and the Community's retreat accommodation for pilgrims. He has been the Community's principal liturgist and Celtic Studies tutor, is the author of over forty books on prayer, spirituality and new monasticism and has travelled and lectured widely on three continents. His popular auto-biography, Monk In the Marketplace, was published in 2021. For information about his daily prayer tweet, weekly blog, downloads and books, see: www.raysimpson.org.
