Publisher's Description

In Ordinary Time, Sarah M. Wells embarks on a soul-stirring journey through the pages of life's liturgical calendar, weaving a tapestry of essays that transcend the ordinary and illuminate the extraordinary moments within. From massaman curry to miscarriages, cancer diagnoses to crickets, Wells invites readers into her world, navigating the complexities of life, love, and the unexpected moments that shape us. With a blend of introspection, humor, lyricism, and keen observation, Ordinary Time inspires readers to find the sacred in the seemingly mundane intricacies of their own lives.

“Sarah Wells is the queen of ordinary time which in a ‘hot second’ of illness, accident, or loss can turn extraordinarily tragic. With this book she invites us into her palace.”

Steven Harvey

“Whether she’s writing about rural boys, empty spaces, small joys, or vast faith, Sarah Wells imbues the essays in this elegant collection with grace and humanity. I’ve been reading Wells for more than twenty years, and I am incessantly surprised, always rewarded, and above all, deeply moved.”
