The church year is a uniquely Christian way of marking time. In this engaging introduction to liturgical time, K. C. Ireton takes readers through the liturgical year--from Advent to the second cycle of Ordinary Time--describing the origin of each observance and showing how the seasons connect with the stories of Scripture and the seasons of our lives. The Circle of Seasons presents a simple and traditional way of building your life around your faith, rather than the other way around.
Short and to-the-point! A good resource for liturgical living, but definitely more introductory than some books on the subject. I should have started with this book instead of the heavier ones I've been reading.
A very accessible and helpful reminder -- by a Protestant writer -- of why the liturgical year that is practised by Roman Catholics and others is central to Christian religious life.
