WATCH FOR THE LIGHT: SEASONAL READINGS ON A TIMELESS EVENT

We have all been impacted by the most significant event the world has ever seen . . . the Advent of Jesus Christ.  The word Advent simply means, "to come near."  To approach, and remain close.  And the First Advent of Christ . . . God himself coming near, and remaining close . . . is "a riddle wrapped in a mystery shrouded in an enigma" that the prophets of old, and the angels in heaven, have been trying to wrap their minds around since it was first proclaimed . . . in the book of Genesis:
 "And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel."                        Genesis 3:15 

Throughout history, some of the finest minds and most brilliant intellects have struggled with this conundrum, and in this book the fruit of their labor has been collected for the rest of us to consider and to contemplate.

The title of the book is more than a means of grabbing one's attention, though.  It is an invitation to do just that.  To open the hearts and minds of seekers of truth, ranging from Aquinas, and Kierkegaard, and Lewis all the way up to Dillard, and L'Engle, and Yancey.  To drink from the cup of their thoughts, and musings, and to savor their reflections and conclusions that they have ultimately arrived at.

Accept the invitation, during this time of year, to Watch For The Light.

Watch for it.  Wait for it.  Witness it.

5 stars for a work that the world has been waiting for
