Literally the coolest planner. Space to write homework, goals, reflections, and so much more. Very in depth information on each season of the Christian year. Starting and ending the day with the daily office is so inspiring. Highly recommend!!
This is the second liturgical planner I've used from SOD and it's such an essential tool for developing more meaningful and life-giving rhythms in days, my weeks, my months. Thank you Jenn & team!
So often I would live my life out of my email inbox, letting everyone else’s priorities run my day with no sense of what God was really inviting me into. I am only a few weeks into this, and already I am giving myself permission to limit the amount that I try to accomplish each day and give myself permission to rest and delight in the life God intends for me.
I am lovely my planner. It is helping me build better margins in my life and balance between my chores & my hobbies. This is my first time buying this planning & I *plan* to do so again at the end of 2021!
I am really loving this planner! The daily office readings, as well as the Sabbath Days and Weekly Examens are exactly what I need to slow down from the crazy frenetic pace of my life.
This planner has enabled me to finally have some discipline around my quiet time and bible readings each day. I love the Sabbath pages in particular as they remind me that rest is vital to my wellbeing and part of my spiritual discipline. I have tried so many different tools and am so grateful to have finally found this planner. I feel so much more connected to the liturgical seasons and am enjoying building in the seasonal reflections into my daily life. I found the Rule of Life section at the front of the planner to be extremely helpful in centering my life back on God and what matters most. I can't recommend this planner highly enough. I have used the digital version and paper version and both are wonderful.
This is my first year following the liturgical calendar and so far I am loving it. I am really appreciating the focus on seasons and the feel of community it gives to people using either the liturgical calendar in general or the planners specifically. I chose the Ember daily planner and the extra pop of color is a welcome sight on my bedside table. Thank you for making this practice so accessible!
-For the first time in forever, I'm looking forward to my quiet time.
-Starting this planner at advent also makes my favorite season, advent, even sweeter.
- I had let working from home during the pandemic consume my days. Using this planner for the past three weeks has helped me to stop the rush of work and dwell in my rest/ delight.
This planning and journaling system has literally changed my life. I have really struggled to incorporate both a daily Bible study practice and a routine of mindful activity each day. Using sacred ordinary I have finally accomplished both! I move through my days with a sense of structure that isn’t constraining and I get manageable chunks of scripture every morning and evening. It is such a win on every level. Thank you!
I have only been using the planner for a few weeks, but so far I love it. The build quality is good and it seems like it will stand up to a year of use and abuse. The paper is thin enough to make the planner light, but not so thin that I get bleed-through. I generally use a pencil or a fountain pen with a fine tip, and so far I have had no issues with either. One of the reasons I wanted to try this planner was the inclusion of liturgical year features and spiritual discipline practices. These seem to well done and provide some guidance for contemplative reflection without becoming burdensome. Overall I would strongly encourage anyone considering this planner to give it a try.

An incredibly beautiful book. The gold embossing, the illustrations, the acknowledgement of such ordinary holiness is wonderful! I would say that some liturgies went on a little bit, but I liked that some of them also had shorter versions to choose from. I think I may annoy my friends when I show up with a liturgy for EVERY occasion, but hopefully in the long run they'll thank me 🤪.

I downloaded this pdf and got it printed and spiral bound at Staples because I couldn't wait for the journal I purchased to get here, much less wait til the end of November to start! I really need a livable way to incorporate prayer and scripture into my day as a working mom and even after my first two entries, and this is it. I have always been a planner and journaler, and to have both functionalities in the same elegant and thoughtful book is so helpful and refreshing. I'm looking forward to getting off my phone more since I have the lectionary readings and day planner in print, keeping me away from the tempting apps that await me when I open my calendar or web browser to look up the scripture of the day and my events.
Cannot wait to continue this new practice in the coming year!!
I have been a SOD user from the kickstarter days, and I have used both the paper and digital versions. When I needed an Ipad and apple pencil for work, I decided to try the digital version of the planner. I use the GoodNotes app and open the PDF file there. I can write, highlight, add pages between SOD pages for notes / planning, bookmark pages, add calendars to an outline, etc. It is easy for me to carry with me everywhere I go.
My practice is to wake up early - before the husband and kids - take my caffeine to the back porch, and spend 15 or 20 minutes working through my day. Having the planner has kept me feeling grounded in a time of uncertainty.
Celtic Daily Prayer Book Two: Farther Up and Farther In from The Northumbria Community
Building on the foundations set down in its first volume, this new collection blends the voices of the early Celtic and desert saints with more contemporary sources in ways that continue to speak to us in our own generation and culture.
Prayer is the heartbeat of the Northumbria Community, and Celtic Daily Prayer Book Two: Farther Up and Farther In contains the Daily Office (morning, midday and evening prayer, and compline), which can be said, or sung to the music provided.
As well as the Daily Office, there are four original Communion services, along with liturgies and prayers that have emerged out of real-life experiences of seeking God in many differing contexts throughout the world. Topics include reaching adulthood/mid-life/old-age; renewal of a marriage; the summer solstice; living with pain; blessing a garden; Christmas preparation; after an argument; scattering ashes; studying; peace; the ‘father wound’; loyalty and sleep, among many, many others.
A two-year collection of daily readings and prayers, with Celtic themes and inspiration. There is also a meditation for each day of the month.

Beeswax Advent Pillar Candles from The Cottage Stillroom
Since the Middle Ages, beeswax candles have been treasured for their clear flame and honey-sweet smell. Let this gracious light bless your home or church this Advent with a set of Beeswax Advent Pillar Candles from The Cottage Stillroom.
Hand-poured in the Virginia workshop of Aline Bowles, these candles will illuminate a beautiful, hopeful Advent. These handsome pillars would make a gorgeous display a table, hearth, or altar Advent wreath.
Each set include five taper candles (three purple, one rose, and one cream). Pillars are available in 6" or 12" heights. All pillars are 1.5" in diameter.
Note: Over time, pure beeswax products may develop a whitish "bloom." This bloom does not affect the way a candle burns and is simply a natural process of the softer oils of the beeswax rising to the outside surface. Many people like the appearance of the bloom, but if you prefer, you can clean it from your candle with hosiery or a soft cloth.
Dimensions: 1.5 x 6 inches or 1.5 x 12 inches
Shipping Weight:
6-inch Set (5 candles) 1.87 pounds
12-inch Set (5 candles) 3.75 pounds
ABOUT THE CREATOR
The Cottage Stillroom began in 1981 when Aline Bowles was introduced to the centuries-old craft of hand-pouring beeswax into tin "tube and funnel" molds. There was an immediate bonding with the art form of the age-old French processes and the use of that wonderful substance. Aline felt heart-ties with this art form that soon resulted in the formation of the business she now owns and operates. The kindly affection she had for the old techniques experienced early in her exploration has not been diminished over the years. It is her conviction that there is much to be preserved and shared with others of the quality found in hand-producing a product of quality using completely natural raw materials. That is the driving force behind much of what goes on at The Cottage Stillroom today.

Sacred Ordinary Days Planner Fund Donation
Partner with us to offer peace, presence, and purpose to someone with a need.
From the very beginning, we've quietly given away at least 10% of our planners each year. We've approached it as the kind of faithful stewardship that doesn't let the right hand know what the left is doing. But we've realized that keeping it to ourselves kept it from reaching as far as it could. It also kept you from having a hand in it.
We began dreaming of a planner fund that would allow us to put more planners into the hands of people who are hungry for peace, presence, and purpose, but whose finances can't support the cost. It will continue to be a fund that we seed, but that our community now helps us water and grow.

Cultural Liturgies, 3-Volume Boxed Set by James K. A. Smith
This boxed set includes all three volumes from James K. A. Smith's highly acclaimed Cultural Liturgies series: Desiring the Kingdom, Imagining the Kingdom, and Awaiting the King.
In Desiring the Kingdom (winner of a Christianity Today Book Award), Smith casts a new vision for worldview through the lens of Christian liturgy, re-visioning education through the process and practice of worship.
Imagining the Kingdom shows how worship works in shaping us through liturgical practices. Smith helps us understand and appreciate the bodily basis of habit formation and how liturgical formation--both "secular" and Christian--affects our fundamental orientation to the world.
Awaiting the King explores the religious nature of politics and the political nature of Christian worship, sketching how the worship of the church propels us to be invested in forging the common good.
Paperback: 720 pages
Dimensions: 6.1 x 9.2 x 2.2 inches

The Spiritual Journey Set by David G. Benner
The spiritual journey is one of transformation and awakening. We are aware that the self that begins the spiritual journey is not the same as the one that ends it—with changes in identity, life experience and capacity for love. David G. Benner, author of the three books in The Spiritual Journey set says it this way:
"Christian spirituality is taking on the mind and heart of Christ as we recognize Christ as the deepest truth of our being. It is actualizing the Christ who is in us. It is becoming fully and deeply human. It is experiencing and responding to the world through the mind and heart of God as we align ourselves with God?s transformational agenda of making all things new in Christ. It is participating in the very life of God."
The Spiritual Journey trilogy describes the foundational Christian practice of surrender, how this practice emerges as a response to Perfect Love, and the changes this produces in our identity, will and deepest desires. Each of the three best-selling books focuses on one of these strands while interweaving it with the others. Together they serve as a manual for walking the spiritual path as God's heart and mind slowly but truly become our own.

PRAISE
"David Benner never disappoints. He is intelligent without being academic, psychologically astute without being trendy, spiritually profound without being pious. He clearly knows the landscape from which he dares to speak."
"My favorite David G. Benner books are his trilogy: Surrender to Love, The Gift of Being Yourself and Desiring God's Will—and my preferred among these favorites is Surrender to Love. It was written in a very brief period of time and its long shelf life attests to the author's burst of inspiration. It is about the difference between white-knuckled obedience versus warm-hearted surrender in our attempts to live God's love. . . . "The Gift of Being Yourself is the best treatment of the journey to becoming one's true self that I have ever read. I began reading the book as a favor to David; I finished it in one four-hour sitting as a favor to me. Drawing from his wisdom as a psychotherapist and spiritual director, insights from Scripture, and his own self and God discoveries, David gently describes the great disparity between the false self that most of us have become and the self-in-Christ that we are intended to be. I have never been so challenged and warmly inspired to receive the gift of being my true self. . . . "Desiring God's Will is the perfect capstone for one of the finest trilogies of Christian spiritual formation that has ever been written. I recommend it for any serious seeker who desires for his or her heart to resonate in perfect pitch with the heart of God."
