Seasons Greeting : Christmas Letters From Those Who Were There
$14.99
Imagine opening your mailbox to find a bundle of Christmas letters addressed to you from long-ago Bible characters who were there for the birth of Jesus. Mary. Joseph. The innkeeper. A shepherd. The midwife. King Herod. The Magi. How do each of these writers remember the unfolding story? What did they know? When did they know it? How did it change them?
In Season’s Greetings, twelve vividly imagined letters from “those who were there” speak to the many meanings of Christmas. Awe. Wonder. Disruption. Scandal. Hope. Collected together, the letters invite you-the reader-to add your voice to the conversation, to put Christmas into your own words.
Scripture texts, companion prayers, reflection questions and journaling prompts accompanying each letter lend themselves to individual or group study.
Whether you love Christmas or dread it, whether you are a believer or a skeptic, the letters in Season’s Greetings will speak to you. This Advent devotional delivers straight talk with honesty, intellectual rigor and a touch of humor, allowing you to hear with new ears the old, old story that changed-and is changing-the world.
Season’s Greetings also includes an Afterword for Clergy and Church Leaders offering creative ideas for using the book in various ministry contexts, as well as a Small Group Leader’s Guide.
