Advent

From bestselling author and artist Ruth Chou Simons comes this gorgeously illustrated Advent exploration of what it means to intimately experience God's presence in our lives not only at Christmas, but all year long.

Join Bette Dickinson as she moves through the story of Christmas and Jesus' birth. Each of these twenty-five devotionals includes an original painting, spiritual practices, breath prayers, and reflection questions that will allow you to truly make room for God's work in your life, your community, and the world.

Seasonal spiritual wisdom alongside recipes and fun ideas for how to celebrate Christmas.

The Secret Christmas leaves the familiar outward celebrations and goes in search of people's deepest thoughts, feelings and memories at Christmas. It finds protest and doubt as well as anticipation, faith and delight revealed in the writings of Charles Dickens, Thomas Hardy, G. K. Chesterton, C. S. Lewis and many others. A beautiful gift.

This book presents the complete texts of the gospel readings (from the RNJB) for every Sunday throughout the three-year cycle of the Sunday lectionary in the Catholic Church during the seasons of Advent, Christmas, Lent and Easter. It may be used for personal study to enhance understanding and appreciation of the Sunday gospel.
