Here are some endorsements for our breviary:

“My friends at Missio Dei stand at the forefront of a great renaissance in Christianity. They are living in community among some of the forgotten people of our culture. And they are reaching back into the treasury of prayer given to us by churchly ancestors. I highly commend their breviary for your use, both personally and corporately. It is contemporary and ancient, simple and poignant; it is beautiful.”

Tony Jones is the author of The New Christians: Dispatches from the Emergent Frontier and the national coordinator of Emergent Village

“The cultural forces of America blind us from seeing the poor, the hurting, and the lost in our midst. Therefore, we are in need of a spiritual formation that clears some space to see the Mission of God in the world. I humbly thank the Missio Dei community for making available their breviary as a practice we can all engage to these ends. It is an office of daily communal prayer that I highly recommend—it could not come at a more desperate time.”

David Fitch is author of The Great Giveaway, pastor of Life on the Vine Church in suburban Chicago and Lindner Professor of Evangelical Theology at Northern Seminary

“…This little book with its offer of morning and evening prayers for each day of the month is an invigorating way to begin and end the day. Its emphasis on social justice reminds us of the need to focus beyond ourselves and calls us each day to be God’s instruments of justice and righteousness reaching out to a world in need. We highly recommend its regular use as way to strengthen the faith of those who are concerned about the injustices of our world.”

“The Missio Dei Breviary adds beautifully to a centuries old Church tradition, where prayerful people adapt the spiritual discipline of liturgy of the hours to their particular context. This prayer book is a delightful mash-up of Psalms and other scripture texts, alongside ancient and contemporary prayers. From the heart of this new monastic community, their four-week cycle of morning and evening prayer liturgies is something I am thankful to pray with them.”
