The Book of Waiting: Reflections on Advent and Christmas

By Jonathan Martin

Book Overview

Has there ever been a time in your life when you were not waiting--waiting at the DMV, or the check in the mail; waiting to be old enough to drive, or to graduate, or to retire; waiting on somebody to finally notice you, or finally leave you alone; waiting for your big break to come, or for the fever to break? The things we are waiting for are different, but the sense of powerlessness is always the same. The Book of Waiting will help you turn the waiting into consecrated time, to make the waiting count for something. This journey from Advent into Christmas reveals a path not just for a season, but a way of being in the world--a way to say a deep yes to the mystery of your own life, and the God who is the giver of life.
