Though Christians the world over make yearly preparations for Lent,
there s a conspicuous lack of good books for that other great
spiritual season: Advent. All the same, this four-week period
leading up to Christmas is making a comeback as growing numbers
reject shopping-mall frenzy and examine the deeper meaning of the
season. Ecumenical in scope, these fifty devotions invite the
reader to contemplate the great themes of Christmas and the
significance that the coming of Jesus has for each of us not only
during Advent, but every day. Whether dipped into at leisure or
used on a daily basis, Watch for the Light gives the phrase holiday
preparations new depth and meaning. Includes writings by Christoph
