  Each day a new aspect of faith comes alive in this challenging series of Advent and Christmas meditations. A strange assortment of travelers (including three less-than-wise men, a small frog, and an ugly duckling) are the heroes in these tales, each of them seeking to discover the meaning of Christ's birth and the Gospel today. Sometimes tragic or amusing, but always moving, these stories explore Christian faith in the city.

  In this engaging series of Advent meditations, David Rhodes uses stories and experiences from the streets of the inner city to help us rediscover the startling message of the gospel. Sometimes humorous, often moving, the book makes adventurous reading. If we run the risk of loving, we soon learn the meaning of vulnerability. Mary knew from the beginning that life with the Christ-child was not going to be easy. Perhaps we should expect it to be no less challenging to live as Christ?s disciples today.
