Back to the post on set prayers at set times — some good experiences there. I’m wondering if you have used The Liturgy of the Hours, any other Roman Catholic prayer book, an Orthodox prayer book, or the Book of Common Prayer and want “to tell your story.” (Actually, I’m looking for “call outs” in my prayer book and a short paragraph is just the thing.

Christmas, for Joseph, meant obedience and restraint (1:24-25) Roman Catholics and Protestants have been fighting for far too long about what Joseph and Mary “did” after the birth of Jesus.
