What does it mean to inhabit the life of liturgy? What does it mean to be inhabited by Christ? This book offers a way to rethink what we do when we pray, so that we do not so much call on God for help but join in a conversation. Readers will learn how to think about God through certain habits and practices: how posture effects our perceptions of God and Christ, how feasting on Christ in the Eucharist shapes our understanding of the body—both our individual bodies and the body of the Church. The author also offers tools for forming a deliberate rule of life to ground readers in the transcendent life of liturgy.

Readers will recognize the inseparability of the tables of their homes and the Eucharistic Table, relating daily life with Eucharistic life. Dr. Daniel connects the language of the Book of Common Prayer with the everyday realities of ordinary life, compelling the worshiper to discern how daily practices correspond with or fight against her participation in the Eucharistic economy.

WILLIAM DANIEL serves as rector at Saint Michael's Episcopal Church in Geneseo, New York. He is an adjunct professor ofHumanities at SUNY Geneseo, and serves as a coordinator for seminary formation and District Dean in the Diocese of Rochester. He completed his doctorate at the University of Nottingham after earning degrees from Nashotah House Theological Seminary, Duke University Divinity School, and Trevecca Nazarene University. Father Daniel lives with his family in Geneseo.
