Get inside Advent with Pen Wilcock and discover what Christmas really means to Jesus as he talks to her about God, the universe and a few other things.

Imagine meeting up with Jesus for a coffee and some heart-to-heart conversation.

What would you say to him?

What might he say to you?

Penelope Wilcock invites you to listen in on twenty-five conversations she's had with Jesus about the Christian journey and the meaning of Advent.

They delve into many areas: children and families, gifts and graces, angels, homes, homelessness and hospitality – and more besides.

Get ready to be surprised and challenged, as you hear Jesus' own take on the original Christmas and what it means for our world twenty centuries later.

    Well worth reading and easy due to short chapters. Some thought- provoking ideas and of course I didn't agree with everything!
