It’s About Time

“Brook Thelander breathes new meaning into the seasons of the Christian year. He not only explains in clear terms their origin in the history of the church, but by combining biblical exposition, theological reflection, and reference to authors as diverse as Athanasius and Sayers probes their significance for contemporary Christians as they face the various struggles and questions of their lives.”


—David R. Bauer, dean, School of Biblical Interpretation, Asbury Theological Seminary





“It’s About Time gave me deeper insight and greater appreciation for the wisdom of church fathers, who centuries ago knew the importance of following a liturgical calendar as we progress through the seasons of not only the year, but the seasons of our lives as well. For teachers and those who prepare sermons, the book is one that will become a go-to reference throughout the year. For all readers, this is a book that one will want to take time to read, at the right times.”


—Gene Fadness, deacon, St. Mary’s Parish, Boise, Idaho
