Daily Office

Fr. Neuhaus has some nice words about the Liturgy of the Hours (a/k/a the Daily Office). Link, then scroll down a bit.

It's a devilishly-difficult thing to get the hang of, but I try to hit the morning and evening offices every day, even when I'm not feeling particularly pious (which is about nine days out of ten). I've seen the Magnificat periodical that Neuhaus references. It's very good. I would subscribe to it, but I splurged and bought the four volume Office a few years ago. The heft makes it feel holier, but I can't fit it in my pocket, like I could Magnificat.
