Means of Grace

A theologically rich resource for devotional reading and prayer

Means of Grace is a remarkable devotional drawn from the sermons of beloved pastor and theologian Fleming Rutledge. In keeping with her embrace of Anglican tradition, the book is organized around the liturgical calendar; it spans the seasons of Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, Easter, and the lengthy period following Pentecost. Each entry explores a biblical passage and ends with a short prayer. Means of Grace thus guides readers in reading, reflecting on, and responding to Scripture throughout the church year.

Like all Rutledge's work, Means of Grace conveys both her genuine empathy for human experience and her deep reverence for God. Anyone longing for spiritual wisdom from an experienced pastor and preacher--one who understands Scripture as "the living God present and acting in the story of redemption"--will find here a valuable resource that remains deeply meaningful from one year to the next.
