What am I doing for Advent this Year?
What Am I Doing for Advent This
Year? will help you enter into the wisdom of Advent- -the season of
joyful expectation and spiritual preparation for the coming of Christ. Though
brief and direct, this little booklet is a serious "workbook" that
presents. Advent as an opportunity for spiritual focus and renewal at a usually
hectic and exhausting time of year. It invites you to take stock of your
customary ways of observing the four weeks and of your spiritual state at this
moment.
Paul Turner
offers engaging descriptions of Catholic Advent practices and explores three
memorable figures of the Advent scriptures--Isaiah, John the Baptist, and the
Virgin Mary. He then guides you through a reflection process that will lead you
to fresh insights and resolutions for this Advent season.
