Henri J. M. Nouwen is one of the most beloved and well-read spiritual author of our time.  His works are popular among Christians of all denomination.  This book of Advent and Christmas Wisdom will both challenge you and warm your heart during your annual preparation for the Lord's coming.  Through the quotes, Nouwen shares with the reader his own journey of waiting while seeking the Lord.

Advent is that period of great anticipatory joy to prepare for the celebration of Christ's arrival in Bethlehem as a helpless infant.  The date commemorating his birth begins the Christmas cycle of the liturgical year, a cycle that runs through the Sunday after the feast of the Epiphany.  This book is designed to be used during the entire period from the First Sunday of Advent to the end of the Christmas season.

Reflections for each day in this book begin with the words of Henri Nouwen taken from various sources of his writings.  Following that quotation is an excerpt from Scripture related to the quote.  Next is a small prayer based on the quote and the Scripture passage. Finally, an activity is suggested for applying the messages to one's daily life.

By: Baker, Robert C. Age(s): 5 - 9. Grade(s): Kindergarten - 4. Christmas seems to be under attack from what some have called "secular fundamentalism." Presumably to avoid giving offense, businesses forbid their employees from wishing customers Merry Christmas," retailers substitute Holiday trees for their Christmas cousins, and some school districts have transformed Christmas break into Winter break. This visually-stunning picture book for children asks, "What happened to Merry Christmas?" As Christmas becomes more commercial and secular, Christian parents are increasingly challenged to teach about the real meaning of the day and about celebrating our Savior's birth. In this story for children ages five and up, children can learn about a little boy who discovers that Christmas truly is everywhere we are. For those who believe, the message of God's love in Jesus and the story of His birth are still found in the symbols and traditions of even a modern Christmas.

The Story of Christmas (St. Joseph "Carry-Me-Along" Board Book). Author(s): George Brundage. Ideal book for young children. A sturdy book that will stand up to wear and tear, it provides clear, simple text to introduce children to the story of Jesus' birth. With full-color illustrations and a "carry-along" handle. Size 6 X 8 1/2.

Advent Light from the Threshold Bible Study by Stephen Binz

Advent is a time for new understanding, for putting different pieces of God's revelation together to see the divine plan more clearly. We listen to the words of the ancient prophets, to the wisdom of Jesus, to the stories of his birth and infancy, and we make connections. Then we connect those truths to our own lives and our world and see how God is acting anew, how God continues to reveal the coming of Jesus today. Our best model for this Advent search for understanding is Mary of Nazareth. By making connections between the ancient and the new, between her people Israel and her own life, Mary grew in understanding of God's plan and responded to God's will with her acceptance: "Let it be with me according to your word" (Lk 1:38).
