Reviews

Anselm Grün, beloved Benedictine and spiritual guide for thousands of grateful Christians, here gives us yet another small gem of consolation, instruction, and gentle guidance. As is always true with Grün, the tone is conversational, and the pages rich with allusions and scriptural depth. The result is that as we follow him through these Advent and Christmas lessons, we discover again the authenticity of the ancient seasons, even as we experience once more their unfathomable power to heal and make whole.

This is a book that you will hold onto for future Advents. Each section nourished my heart and spirit.
