Media Reviews
From Magnet - Winter 2009 If you are looking for a different read for Advent, this may be just the book for you. Firmly rooted in Scripture yet facing up to the challenges of 21st Century Britain, Kevin Scully's Advent book brings a fresh approach to Advent and Christmas. Angels, revolutionaries, teenage mums, the stars and the God in the baby, with quotes from Alice in Wonderland to Rowan Williams gives new insights to the well known Advent and Christmas themes. One chapter a week, with questions and meditation ideas makes this book suitable for both private and study group use. Reviewed by John Goacher
