Description

Lent is more than just a time for sacrifice; it’s a vibrant season for deep spiritual renewal to strengthen your relationship with the Lord. Tired of the same old habits and practices that leave you feeling unchanged? This year, embark on a transformative journey that will invigorate your soul and draw you closer to God.

In Praying with the Psalms, Catholic writer and podcaster Shannon Wimp Schmidt will lead you in contemplative devotions based on verses from the season’s Responsorial Psalms. These daily prayers will keep you rooted in quiet reflection and the powerful words of the psalms. Let the Lord help you lay down your troubles, renew your spirit, and lead you to the joy of new life at Easter in as little as three minutes a day.

For each day from Ash Wednesday through Easter Sunday, your short devotion will include

  • a brief reflection on the text,
  • an invitation to rest a moment with the Lord,
  • one simple step to renew your faith, and
  • a brief prayer that draws you back to the opening psalm verse.

This Lent, say goodbye to monotonous routines and hello to a Lent filled with peace, reflection, and spiritual growth. Transform your Lenten experience and let the psalms be your path to a deeper, more fulfilling relationship with the Lord.

Advance Praise

“Shannon Schmidt has written a simple book that invites the reader to be transformed by praying the psalms and then living them. Each day she offers us a morsel of scripture to ruminate on, a reflection on the text, a moment of silence, an action item, and a prayer—all in as few as three minutes (though you may find that her words call you to be still for longer as you enter more deeply into God's word). What a perfect book for those who need to start small this Lent—or for anyone seeking to spend more time in silent prayer, whether for three minutes or thirty.”
