“OUT OF AN INFINITE LOVE, you, O Lord, have made me an heir of your kingdom and joint heir with Christ. O Good Jesus, to whom else shall I go? You have the words of eternal life. I hope, and I believe in you. Lord keep me from despair. Amen. O”

“A primary goal of liturgical spirituality—that is, spirituality that is grounded and formed by regularly repeated fixed patterns of prayers, scripture, and ritual actions—is to create a disciplined recollection of God.”
