In the overlooked moments and routines of our day, we can become aware of God's presence in surprising ways. How do we embrace the sacred in the ordinary and the ordinary in the sacred? Framed around one ordinary day, this book explores daily life through the lens of liturgy, small practices, and habits that form us. Each chapter looks at something―making the bed, brushing her teeth, losing her keys―that the author does every day. Drawing from the diversity of her life as a campus minister, Anglican priest, friend, wife, and mother, Tish Harrison Warren opens up a practical theology of the everyday. Each activity is related to a spiritual practice as well as an aspect of our Sunday worship. Come and discover the holiness of your every day.

With the popularity, I was surprised by its lack of depth. Would not recommend to a friend.
Overall - New perspective
-
This was a fantastic book! Tish's writing is warm, intelligent, and poignant. I was invited to see everyday annoyances in light of eternity - and I'm grateful for that. I've already recommended it to a few friends.
Overall - Ex Anglican who missed out
-
Speaking as someone who attended nominally the church of Ireland (Anglican) most of my life I fled it as soon as I was born again. This was mainly because of the (mainly political) unbiblical teaching of the church but also because the liturgical aspect just made no sense to me. It was just something you did pointlessly which made me feel distant from God. Now I feel I have missed out something, I have truly been inspired by this book! I don’t espouse many of the confusing practices of the author in the book which seem more lead by culture than the bible, but I can say this woman has shown me how to draw closer to God in a whole new way that I have already started. I feel sorry for adding some negativity to this review but am just warning others in my position that if you pick up this book you will be inspired but also annoyed sometimes lol

A good read, very insightful
Overall - too much politics not enough of God's Word
-
I was unable to listen to this book in its entirety. I made it thru the chapter that had an agenda to promote fair trade and farmers markets. Both of which I agree are good things, but I do not care for a dose of hidden politics. The next chapter started and I chose not to accept marital advice from someone who dose not represent God's plan, presented in Genesis, also 1Corinthians. Just too much politics and not enough biblical doctrine.

Not worth the time
Overall - #1 recommendation in 2018

I loved this thoughtful meditation on liturgy-- my favorite read for 2018!
Overall - Women Anglican Priest. All I need to know. Beware of false doctrine.
-
Even though I am sure there is good intention in this book, but it serves the Church of Jesus Christ nothing if we ligitemize liberal teaching of women priests who do not respect nor obey the teachings and commands of the Apostles of Jesus Christ.
