Advent and the Christian Year

I have decided to go liturgical this coming Christian Year. I will use the Daily Office of the Book of Common Prayer as my guide (though neither the ESV nor the NIV include books like Tobit and Wisdom so I'll definitely be maintaining my Evangelical Presbyterianism).

I found this great series of posts from Mark Roberts on the significance of the liturgical calendar with special emphasis on Advent. They are great. Credit for the very helpful chart on the right goes to Mark Roberts as well. If you appreciate the relationship between art and worship (as I know one very special person who is reading this does) then you should take a look at the chart and click on the link to read the posts.

I'm excited to start in a few weeks. You should start too.
