Our everyday lives are full of small-scale beginnings and endings-births, death, marriages, careers, house moves and so on. How do the grand-scale beginnings and endings of Advent help to guide us as we seek to follow Jesus in the 21st century? This book of daily readings reflects on the stories of six groups of people and individual characters from the Bible. Each provides a focus on the idea of beginnings and endings, and each gives us a glimpse into the human experience in between.
I worked through the book and enjoyed the subtle inner challenges that reflecting on Maggi's meditations brought me. I relearned a few details that I had forgotten as well! Try this book out when Advent rolls around again.
