Discover peace and spiritual renewal in the midst of the holiday season using Praying with the Psalms by Deacon Jason Bulman. Designed for Advent and the Christmas season, these daily three-minute devotions guide you to lay down the busyness and tensions of life and embrace the profound hope and promise of the Incarnation. From the First Sunday of Advent (November 30) through the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord (January 11), this devotional invites you to ponder the wonder of God becoming human in Christ Jesus. Whether you spend three minutes or linger longer, these reflections will center your heart and mind on the true meaning of the season. Each devotion follows a simple, five-step format to help you connect with God: Start with a brief opening prayer to enter into the Lord's presence. Pray the psalm verse(s) provided for the day. Reflect on a short meditation that illuminates the scripture. Pause for silent prayer, resting in the Lord's peace. Conclude with a simple spiritual exercise and closing prayer. Perfect for personal use or as a gift for your parish community, this affordable resource is ideal for bulk purchases by parishes, dioceses, campus ministries, chaplains and those they serve, as well as chaplaincies and other pastoral organizations. Let this Advent season be a time of spiritual renewal as you journey through the psalms and draw closer to the heart of Christ.
