Rediscovering Daily Graces

Classic Voices on the Transforming Power of the Sacraments

Has our spiritual anchor drifted?

For centuries the church defined cradle-to-grave faith through a ritual framework called the seven sacraments: baptism, confirmation, communion, reconciliation, prayer for the sick, marriage, and vocation. These were seen as everyday gifts of grace to God’s people—aids for navigating the stormy seas of life.

Today the waves continue to toss. So it’s time to rediscover a collection of writings from respected writers and church leaders such as Martin Luther, Charles Spurgeon, Andrew Murray, A. B. Simpson, D. L. Moody, and others—all updated in contemporary language.

Each one urges us to leave shallow waters behind while offering time-honored wisdom to draw us deeper to God in our everyday relationships, our work, and our worship. As their insights once more come alive, they offer practical strategies for reclaiming the best of our spiritual heritage and finding our way home.

Each section includes thought-provoking questions for individual and group study.
