THE DIVINE HOURS and SIGNPOSTS DAILY DEVOTIONS are tools for prayer and contemplation that nurture both mind and heart. Together they provide a framework for daily practice that can deepen your faith and bring you closer to the Holy.

The explorefaith app offers these and other spiritual resources for access anytime on your iPhone.

The explorefaith app features:

1. The Divine Hours by Phyllis Tickle

2. Signposts Daily Devotions from explorefaith.org

3. New content featured on the explorefaith.org web site

THE DIVINE HOURS by Phyllis Tickle (published by Doubleday Books)is a manual for fixed-hour prayer—or observing the daily offices. For centuries people have prayed at designated hours during each day, quietly easing away from the obligations of home or work to spend a few moments with God. These moments connect them with the Divine, and to the countless others who are also pausing to pray at that hour, on that day.

Each time you access the explorefaith app, you’ll receive THE DIVINE HOURS prayer service that corresponds to your time zone:

Morning prayers for prayer between 6 and 9;

Midday prayers for praying between 11 and 2;

Evening prayers to pray between 5 and 8.

Praying with The Divine Hours encourages you to take time to pay attention to the sacred. Each hour becomes holy, for every day is laced together by your appointments with God.

The Divine Hours by Phyllis Tickle is published by Doubleday Books and protected by copyright.
