"Bless your Advent journey with these inspiring daily devotions exploring psalms from the season. Join four noted authors as they offer diverse perspectives on psalms of adoration, lament, repentance, and thanks. This collection connects us to the eternal truths of scripture by reflecting on the assigned Sunday psalms for Advent from all three liturgical years. Each daily devotion includes prompts for going deeper with personal reflection or faithful practices. During a time of chaos and confusion, these daily devotions help you stay anchored in the knowledge that "The earth is the Lord's and all that is in it, the world and all who dwell therein" (Psalm 24:1)"--

"When we are initiated into the church with the water of baptism, we (or our sponsors) answer a series of questions called the Baptismal Covenant. The first three questions echo the words of our creeds, our beliefs about God and the church. The last five questions focus on action. They each begin with the words: "Will You?" These "Will You" questions articulate how we are to animate our baptism, to follow Christ's example in our relationships with others, our communities, and the world. These questions move from a "gathering in" to a "sending out"-they are a call to embrace and practice evangelism by proclaiming the Good News of Christ in all we do and say. This five-week Lenten study offers daily reflections, examples of evangelism in action, and an invitation to think in new ways about the promises we make to God, each other, and ourselves in baptism"--

Episcopal priest Tim Schenck offers good humor and spiritual direction for the journey through Lent and Easter.
