by Claude Atcho (Author)

Christianity Today Book Award Finalist (Bible/Devotional) - Cultivate a faith shaped by Christ's presence in every season with this unique blend of devotional reflections, guided by Claude Atcho, a seasoned pastor.

"Walking us through the cycles of light, life, and love, Atcho shows us how to measure our days by Christ so that we might gain wisdom."--Jessica Hooten Wilson, Fletcher Jones Chair of Great Books at Pepperdine University and author of The Scandal of Holiness

More than just marking time, the church calendar invites us to walk with Jesus in a rhythm of remembrance, renewal, and formation, helping us see the gospel not only as a message to be heard but as a story to be lived.

But many of us engage with the church calendar mainly through observing Advent or celebrating Easter, not fully understanding how its seasons year-round can offer us a deeper, more rooted experience. What if its rhythms could shape your faith, not just on Sundays but in your everyday life?

Rhythms of Faith: A Devotional Pilgrimage Through the Church Year is a simple, accessible introduction for those unfamiliar with the church calendar, and a deep well for those seeking to go further.

Taking you through each season--Advent, Christmastide, Epiphany, Lent, Holy Week, Easter, and Ordinary Time--this book invites you to slow down, reflect, and engage more intentionally with the life of Jesus, cultivating a faith that is formed by church time, anchored in Christ, and powerfully transformative.
