Let It Slow: An Advent Calendar With a Difference

by Stephen Cottrell

Christmas is one of the most joyful times of year, and it can also be one of the most stressful. It comes laden with expectations and, for many, overshadowed by difficult memories and emotions. If every other day of the year has us running in different directions, driven by the bleeping demands of our phones and devices, Christmas makes us run faster still.

This understanding and uplifting book offers another way to approach Christmas and to discover how its joys and promises can restore our lives, not add to their burdens. You are invited to take a few minutes each day during December to join in a conversation with the bestselling author, Stephen Cottrell, who offers simple reflections and practical suggestions for making your Christmas the celebration it is meant to be.

[Helen Shirley · Rating 4 out of 5]

Have enjoyed this Advent study book, looking at things slightly differently in the run up to Christmas and considering how to take things slower within all the busyness.
