Anglican Spirituality

The names of God reveal who He is and how He works in our lives today. The thirty-three names in this book invite us to get to know God the Father and spend intimate time with Him. The devotions for each name provide the context in which the name is found, a deeper understanding of what the name means, and how it applies to our lives today. The accompanying Rosaries lead us directly into meaningful connection to God through Scripture verses, collects, hymns, and ancient prayers.

In this second volume of the series, we explore 33 powerful names of Jesus Christ through daily prayers and devotions—each one offering a fresh glimpse of His love, His divinity, and His presence in our lives. As we pray and reflect on Holy Scripture, ancient hymns, and timeless words of faith, we begin to see more clearly the beautiful mystery of the Son of God—fully divine, yet fully human.

While much of church planting today is approached as an innovative new effort, church leaders can take comfort in the truth that they are simply stewards of what the faithful church has been doing for millennia.

At the same time, the act of planting new churches can breathe new life into these ancient traditions as they are applied to a variety of cultural contexts.
