Summer Book Review - Liturgy of the Ordinary: Sacred Practices in Everyday Life

Are you looking for a summer read that will be easy to follow and change your life? I believe that “Liturgy of the Ordinary: Sacred Practices in Everyday Life” by Tish Harrison Warren is a must read for you!

She sets up the book looking at the various routines we each have in our lives. For example: waking, making the bed, and brushing our teeth. These are all routines that we easily go through without putting any thought into the task. What I love about the book is how the author shows you where God is alive and active in those moments and how we can connect with Him through these simple acts.
