Longing, Waiting, Believing: Reflections for Advent, Christmas and Epiphany

by RodneyHolder (Author)

Synopsis

In the excitement of preparing for Christmas, the traditionally penitential nature of Advent is often overlooked. This book takes readers from 1 December to 6 January, covering the well-known events of the nativity story while also showing the relevance of the Advent focus on the 'four last things' - death, judgment, heaven and hell - as part of the build-up to celebrating the Incarnation. Author Rodney Holder also draws on relevant insights from his years of work at the interface of science and faith.
