Book Description
Christians know that St. John the Baptist prepares the way of the Lord. Which other saints can accompany us during the four weeks of waiting for the birth of Jesus? Through insightful reflections, Franciscan Father Greg Friedman, a pastor and radio personality, connects us to the lives of saints and holy ones suggested by the Scriptural readings of Advent. Father Greg draws on his love for the saints to offer us daily inspiration during this season of preparation. For each day of Advent until Christmas Day, we find a brief reflection on an Advent lectionary reading, with a saintly connection, a suggested action for the day, and a prayer to help us slow down and savor this season of waiting and hope. This perennial Advent resource will become part of your preparation for Christmas year after year.

Book Description
The songs are so clearly messianic it is not difficult to see their reference to the Lord Jesus Christ and their ultimate fulfillment in Him. Intertwined and developed in each of the four songs are two distinct ideas. The first is the servanthood of Christ; the second is His sovereignty.
