The Advent Instructor

The Advent/Christmas season is full of symbols that inspire and instruct us in our understanding of the Christian faith. The information in this book will be especially welcomed by families for nightly stories around the dinner table. It will also be useful for children's sermons, Sunday school classes or even preparing sermons.

This collection will help enrich readers and listeners awareness of the symbols that surround them during the seasons of Advent and Christmas.
