O Sacred Head, Now Wounded

How can you stay connected to Christ after the Easter season? In O Sacred Head, Now Wounded, Jonathan Gibson gives a liturgy for daily worship from Pascha to Pentecost.

Remember and Reflect

This 48-day devotional will help you remember and reflect on Christ’s life, death, and resurrection. After Easter, I tend to miss the spiritual rhythms and routines of reflecting on Christ. This book helps fill the gap as you dwell on the Savior in the late spring and early summer.

The features in this devotional include Scripture readings, hymns, prayers, and creeds. Prompts are also included for meditation, petition, and confession. Because some of the material is repeated throughout the book, it actually helps families memorize the material.

Wonder at the Work of Christ

What I most enjoyed were the special seasonal devotions for Ascension Sunday and Pentecost Sunday. The Scripture readings reminded me that Christ loves the Church, and the Catechism section helped me see that Christ stands as our advocate in heaven. Jesus, as our head, will bring us as his body to himself. The Spirit serves us as a pledge.

Bound in beautiful cloth-over-board and housed in a stunning purple slipcase, this book will serve churches and families well. Wonder at the work of Christ - and worship him!
