Publisher's Synopsis
Discover the Beauty and Depth of Ordinary Time
Most days in Jesus' life were ordinary. Most of ours are too. And that's exactly where the power of Ordinary Time lies. It reminds us that normal is necessary, and routines are for things that matter--things worth repeating.
Ordinary Time by Amy Peeler invites Christians to see the beauty and significance in the longest, yet often overlooked, season of the church year. Far from being mundane, this season is a vital time for spiritual growth and maturity--a time when the routine helps sustain and nurture faith. This time in the church calendar isn't just a placeholder--it's a vibrant and essential season in its own right.
Amy Peeler skillfully explores the history and deeper meaning of what the church has historically called Ordinary Time, unpacking how this season fosters both personal and communal transformation. With pastoral wisdom and scholarly insight, this short but profound volume enriches understanding of the church calendar and inspires readers to engage deeply with their faith.
