Two Christmas Crackers

MARY'S VOICE:
ADVENT REFLECTIONS TO CONTEMPLATE THE COMING OF CHRIST
By Dr. Amy Orr-Ewing
Worthy. 182 pages. £16.99. 
ISBN 978 1 346 004 523

These two books have informed and enriched my Advent reflections.

The author of this first book is a woman, a mother, a theologian, who has her finger on the pulse of our cultural moment. These advent readings drill deep into what it meant for Mary to say yes to God’s commission. It is well written, beautifully produced, has stunning artwork and thoughtful applications.
