Summary
In an ideal world, Advent would be spent in quiet contemplation, meditating upon the wonder of the Christ-child, and anticipating his return as our saviour. Instead, we enter arguably the busiest month of the year. Have we booked time off to see the kids' Nativity play? What's the secret Santa budget? And who became a vegetarian this year? Perhaps, though, it is this busyness which can be the key to a deeper connection with Christ. Perhaps these Christmas 'trimmings' have the potential to teach us more about God. And, as we open our hearts and minds, perhaps we will discover that the Christmas story was busier, messier, and more haphazard than we ever imagined. In this unique devotional, written for busy people, Lucy Rycroft helps us to use the festivities around us to fix our eyes on Christ, deepening our relationship with the Father God who sent him.

Brilliant Invitation to Celebrate 🎄 Christmas
Really enjoyed this book as Lucy talk her way through some very relevant issues in a soft and inviting way. Lucy allows you time to ponder, and settle, with your own thoughts; before moving on to other things. The book builds upon previous days so not allowing them to become just a distant memory. Lucy shows us all how a Christmas is far more that the busy rush and bustling around that is going on at the moment. it felt a privilege to take time to listen and share her thoughts and learn from her.
I hope my own Christmas will be a far kiss selfish one than was unintentionally heading because of Lucy.
Thank you Lucy for opening my eyes but mostly my heart to God's wonderful light and love, which was beautifully told and excellently written.
I just hope many more people will take up the challenge to read or listen (I did both) to Redeeming Advent. Merry Christmas Everyone xxx

This book felt like it was especially for me!
I so resonated with the writer of this book. I always struggle with connecting with the true meaning of Christmas in Advent, as it's always so busy (I have two young boys, and am a full time Church minister). Every day of the book helped me draw closer to God and keep focused on what really matters. Thanks Lucy, and God 🙏
