Review:
Taken from material already published by IBRA in Words For Today 2007, this booklet can be used by individuals or groups preparing for the Christmas season.
The themes for the weeks are firstly The Time is coming, especially for Israel then The time is coming, for all peoples, followed by The coming one is here and The time has come and is coming. For each week there is an introduction and separate readings, thoughts and prayers for all seven days. Of necessity as a reviewer I have only been able to read through quickly. Don’t be tempted to do the same! These passages will reward contemplation and time spent in prayer. Price includes postage and packing if you purchase direct from Christian Education.
