**Taken from the book summary on the back cover and/or preface pages**
This lectionary based Advent study has five sessions - one for each Sunday of Advent plus Christmas readings for use on the Sunday after Christmas or other time when the study group meets. The readings are taken from the Revised Common Lectionary, using the NRSV. The Old Testament, Epistle and Gospel readings are used each lesson, and the Psalm is used for a worshipful opening or closing. Each reading is related to the theme of the session in which it appears and to the seasons of Advent and Christmas with a commentary for each. The readings are personal so readers can see how they apply to their lives, both as individuals and as Christians within a group or congregation. Questions at the end of each section encourage each reader to reflect on the meaning of the reading as developed in the commentary. |
