Daily Devotions for Advent 2014 R. Scott Hurd
The Living Gospel prayer books for Lent and Advent offer practical insight and spiritual wisdom from popular Catholic preachers and homilists. A new voice each season and the popular five-step format help Catholics pray, join their lives to the living Word of God, and take small steps toward spiritual growth each day. As a popular homilist, speaker, and blogger, Father Scott Hurd is immersed in day-to-day pastoral care and leadership. He gracefully draws the cares, concerns, and joys of his fellow Catholics into the larger story of the Advent gospel readings and provides a simple blueprint for prayer, reflection, and spiritual growth in anticipation of Christmas.
