Embrace time as a gift-not an obstacle

Receiving the Day invites us to open the gift of time, to dwell in the freedom to rest and worship that God intends for us and for all creatures. In this book, Dorothy C. Bass shows how Christian practices for rest and worship continually welcome us into a way of life attuned to the love of God, neighbor, earth, and self.
Bass does not aim to provide clear instructions for creating a schedule that solves all our puzzles about how to live in time.
