Christian Prayer: The Liturgy of the Hours

Rating:
Summary: Awesome!
Review: This is the liturgy of the hours (LH) trimmed down to its bare minimum. It is great for beginners to get the hang of praying the hours, but it does not have a lot of the material that is in the four-volume LH, and so it is too thin for hard-core prayers. Perhaps its perfect for lay people.

The MAJOR flaw with Christian Prayer is that it is the "official" ICEL (International Commission on English in the Liturgy) translation. ICEL is notorious for dishonest translations. Unfortunately, ICEL has a monopoly on liturgical texts in the U.S. If possible, try to find a British/Irish version.
