Perfect for finding a fresh heart and insight into Advent
Anna Hockley
Eden Christian Books Specialist
Tom Wright takes you into the heart of the Gospel of Matthew, exploring the key themes of watching, repenting, healing and loving. Sparkling reflections by our most popular Christian author, from Advent to Christmas.
Packed with vivid anecdotes and stimulating insights into the Matthew's portrait of Jesus.
A welcome devotional resource, both for fans of the For Everyone commentaries and for anyone who has not yet read them.
Each of the four themes is explored over a week, beginning each time with the Sunday reading from Matthew in the Revised Common Lectionary; and each of the 28 sections ends with helpful questions for group discussion or personal reflection.
