For many this is one of the most wonderful times of the year. While today, unfortunately, Christmas has become overly commercialised, the real reason for the season will always remain. Christ is the saviour of the world. He left the adoration and praise of his angels to receive insult and rejection from his own created. He suffered and died so that we can have life. Why did He do all this? To save a dying world from the consequences of sin, to give us hope and an eternal future. Christ came because He loves us.

Paula Gooder provides a profoundly biblical guide to the season of Advent and we explore its central theme of waiting (something we are not good at in our modern culture) in the company of the biblical characters who feature prominently in the lectionary readings for the season: Abraham and Sarah who waited for a child, Isaiah and the prophets who waited for judgement and redemption, John the Baptist whose role was to wait in the wilderness until the prophecies he foretold were realised, Mary whose waiting began in pregnancy and continued as she stood at the foot of the cross.

It provides ten chapters (four for Advent, six for Lent) that can be used by individuals or church groups for stimulation and discussion on a week-by-week basis. Each of the ten chapters chooses a location with particular associations from the life of Jesus, so that this book is a kind of “armchair pilgrimage” through the Holy Land. The chapters each cover something of the history of the places concerned before delving into a connected biblical text, and then drawing out key implications and teaching for contemporary faith. The chapters include suggestions for Bible study and worship as well as ideas of how modern-day disciples can respond to what they have learned from their pilgrimage, real or in their imagination. In the Preface, the author says: “This book arose out of several years living in the Holy Land and experiencing the holy places as powerful aids to re-imagining the gospel narratives as well as the seasons of the Church’s year and various stages in Christian life. Viewing the gospel narratives and events through the places associated with them in the Holy Land brings the texts and their meanings to life in a powerful and vivid way.

Although many biblical scholars have puzzled over historical details in the accounts, Paula Gooder argues that doing this risks missing the point. Engaging seriously with biblical and historical criticism, she uncovers key similarities running through the Gospel writers' accounts and focuses on their shared understanding of the significant events they describe. Her detailed exploration of the texts is a goldmine for preaching and teaching, and will breath new life into the familiar Christmas stories heard year after year in churches, carol services and nativity plays. Devotional reflections and discussion questions also make this ideal for personal and group study. Biblical Explorations is an exciting series from bestselling author and scholar Paula Gooder that offers an accessible and informed study of the best loved texts in Scripture.

What was this star and how did it lead the Magi? An astrophysicist turned priest offers a fascinating explanation. The traditional imagery of the Christmas story paints a vivid scene: a bright star suspended above the Bethlehem stable, like a pinpoint on a vast map, orchestrating the path of the wise men as they journey to honour the newborn Christ. This star has been a source of fascination to many, evoking questions about its true nature. Was it simply a bright light in the sky? A planet or comet? How did it effectively guide the Magi to a humble village in Judea? Before he became a priest, Fr Douglas McGonagle was an astronomer who wondered about the astral phenomenon described in the Gospel account of the Magi. Starting with his knowledge of stars and the Gospels, Fr McGonagle follows a trail of clues through the history and politics of first-century Judea, the principles of ancient astronomy, and even the coinage that circulated in the Roman Empire at the time. What ensues is a compelling account of what the Magi might have seen in the night sky, how it led them to discern the birth of the King of the Jews, and what this means for Christians today.\u003c\/p\u003e\nAuthor: Fr Douglas McGonagle\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003cbr\u003ePublished: Sept2023\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Pages: 96\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 127mm x 178mm","brand":"C.T.S","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46066251366698,"sku":"CTS-D848","price":6.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/4424\/1742\/files\/the-star-of-bethlehem-by-fr-douglas-mcgonagle-D848.jpg?v=1692278035"},{"product_id":"waiting-in-joyful-hope-daily-reflections-for-advent-and-christmas-2024-2025-available-september-2024","title":"Waiting in Joyful Hope 2024-2025 Daily Reflections for Advent and Christmas, by Jessica L.
