From Johann Christoph Arnold to Dorothy Day, from Madeline L’Engle to Karl Barth, from Saint Thomas Aquinas to Meister Eckhart, this unparalleled anthology offers wisdom beauty and spiritual nourishment from a wide spectrum of classic and contemporary sources.
Containing a selection for each day of the Christmas season, from the last week of November through the first week of January, Watch for the Light can be read through times of leisure or as a guide to daily devotions. Either way it will give new meaning to the phrase “holiday preparations.”
I like the book. I thought the readings each day would be smaller and quicker, perhaps even geared more toward children, but that’s okay. I find that during the holiday season I am so busy that I don’t have a lot of time to sit down and read, but I would love a quick 2-3 minute read to uplift and motivate me. If you’ve got 5-10 minutes to read, you’d be good. Some of the readings are quite short, and others take a little more time to read. Many different authors/speakers stories are included, and there is a nice variety.
