Preparing for Christmas: Daily Meditations for Advent, by Richard Rohr.
Join us during the Sunday school hour throughout Advent to discuss Richard Rohr’s Advent book. Advent is a time to focus our expectation and anticipation on “the adult Christ, the Cosmic Christ,” who challenges us to empty ourselves, to lose ourselves, to surrender.
Preparing for Christmas offers daily meditations, prayers, Scripture readings, and questions for reflection for each day of Advent.
About Fr. Richard Rohr: Franciscan priest, author of numerous books, founder of the Center for Action and Contemplation in Albuquerque, NM. His teaching is grounded in practices of contemplation and lived kenosis (self-emptying), expressing itself in radical compassion, particularly for the socially marginalized.
(If you reserved one of Fr. Rohr’s books and have not picked it up, it will be available at Sunday school. Please bring a check for $12, made out to Second Presbyterian.)
