Daily Office Project

The Daily Office Project is a devotional adventure. It represents a corporate attempt to insert serious spiritual ritual and discipline into seriously busy American lives. There is a morning exercise and an evening exercise for each day. The best way to participate is to do work with the morning exercise at the very start of your day and to do work with the end of day exercise right before bed.

Along with this, most participants are receiving texts at noon and at 5 PM each day. The texts and the exercises are built around a unified theme. In this way, we are trying to establish a spiritual rhythm that encompasses all of each day.
