"Having these liturgies to jumpstart my prayers has made so many daily tasks more intentional and meaningful." -- Annie F. Downs author of 100 Days To Brave

"Every Moment Holy helps me to seek God's blessing in everything from starting a new book, to setting up a Christmas tree, to marking a birthday. These prayers also help when words are hard to find--in a night of suffering, or after a house fire, or a friend's death. It's filled with biblical wisdom and beautiful writing." -- Russell Moore, author of Onward: Engaging the Culture without Losing the Gospel
"This book of liturgies has been a daily field guide over the past two years. It captures the spirit of celebration, lament, gratitude, and perseverance when my heart cannot find words. Each morning I wake encouraged and strengthened to begin anew." -- Rebekah Lyons, author of Rhythms of Renewal and You Are Free
