The Living Word Plus is a weekly subscription resource for preachers, teachers, and anyone seeking to inwardly digest the Sunday lectionary readings.

Created for preachers and teachers

Our editorial staff thoughtfully curates content from treasures of preaching and teaching past and present, to save time — and enrich your time — as you plan and pray for the coming week’s services. It’s ecumenical, aligned with the rhythms of the Church year, and grounded in the liturgical and spiritual heritage of Anglican and wider Catholic tradition.

For as little as $4.60 per month (with an annual subscription), this is a unique and valued resource for preaching, teaching, worship planning, and individual study. See a sample issue.
