Advent With Evelyn Underhill Reviews
-
Looking forward to "Lent with Evelyn Underhill."
-
Excellent stuff. Now my favorite devotional of the season, and I'll be reading it again in years to come.
-
I think I shall read this wonderful little book every year.
-
I used this little book of devotions for my Advent reading last year and this year. The selections are pithy, deep, and thought-provoking. I like the way they're just long enough to start a profound train of thought, but not so long that you can't plow through them during morning prayer time.
Evelyn Underhill writes from a different century and culture, but her observations are surprisingly relevant and open up timeless truths. She has helped me understand Biblical passages in entirely new ways. -
This lovely little book provides daily readings (in the Anglo-Catholic mysticism vein) from Advent to Epiphany.
-
While the title references advent only, the readings cover Christmas and the first day of Epiphany...Great resource I'll return to again.
-
This is the second year I've read through Advent by Evelyn Underhill. There are some spiritual gems in this slim volume.
