Description
Evelyn Underhill's devotional writings have endured for over sixty years as a beacon to those seeking a deeper understanding of the "interior life" in the mystical Christian tradition. This collection of readings, carefully curated by an editor who first discovered her works while studying at General Theological Seminary, offers a wealth of insight into the spiritual themes that underpin Lent. The selections range from Ash Wednesday's "spiritual stocktaking" to Easter Eve's anticipation of God's ultimate Gift, with each day's reading broadly following liturgical themes. This thoughtful and contemplative guide invites readers to follow Evelyn Underhill's thought as they observe the Christian season of Lent. Now back in print, this collection provides a rich source for those seeking to deepen their understanding of the spiritual life during this significant period.
