Framed around the nighttime prayer of Compline, Tish Harrison Warren, author of Liturgy of the Ordinary, explores themes of human vulnerability, suffering, and God's seeming absence.
When she navigated a time of doubt and loss, the prayer was grounding for her. She writes: 'It was this practice that gave me words for my anxiety and grief and allowed me to reencounter doctrines of the church--the church's claims about reality--not as rational, tidy little antidotes for pain but as a light in darkness, as good news.'
Where do we find comfort when we lie awake worrying or weeping in the night? This book offers a prayerful and frank approach to the difficulties in our ordinary lives at work, at home, and in a world filled with uncertainty.
