'John Bell of the Iona Community has been for many years one of the most recognized voices on BBC Radio 4's Thought for the Day, where his cogent and penetrating topical contributions reach an audience well beyond the churches.' Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury
The Apostle's creed proclaims that Jesus Christ was 'born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate'. But these statements, separated by only a comma, tell us very little about the One in whom 'the fulness of God' lived and breathed!
In four provocative and compelling sessions:
Advent: A time for the kids?
The life omitted
Unspoken in Advent
A life of risk
John Bell writes vividly of the people Jesus met; the things he said; the controversy he caused and the affection he had for the marginalised and for women in particular. Urging us to grasp more fully the great implications of the Incarnation, The Life in the Comma liberates us to celebrate Christmas as never before.
TO ACCOMPANY THIS COURSE BOOK
Filmed on location by Monkeynut in an enchanting Georgian country house, The Life in the Comma video (in addition to the usual audio CD download) invites us to join John, Bishop Smitha Prasadam, and writer Lauren Windle as they discuss the themes of the course.
