Watch For The Light ~ Readings for Advent and Christmas
A Collection of Thoughts from a Variety of Authors
(Plough Publishing House, 2001; Orbis Books, 2004)
This year I am going to do it.
Last year I was finally able to track down a copy of Watch For The Light - Readings for Advent and Christmas. I had read about this book and was interested to add additional readings to my season of Christmas.
And then life happened.
I was unable to complete the book, which begins with a reading for November 24. The book continues through with daily readings until January 6, the day after Epiphany.
Again. I do love second chances.
This year, I began early and reread the entries I had read last year. This collection has been penned by a huge variety of authors, including some of my favorites like
Madeleine L'Engle
Martin Luther
C.S. Lewis
Philip Yancey
T.S. Eliot
And many, many more.
I look forward to delving into these contemplations about Advent and Christmas. With all of the commercial focus on the season, I think my soul will breathe a sigh of relief to be considering things not-physical.
Deep. Breathe.
