a journey into advent

Celebrate a Season of Wonder and Waiting Though the holidays are often jam-packed with busyness, the weeks leading up to Yuletide are still a time to reflect on the miracle of Jesus's birth. Shadow and Light is a concise and customizable guide for the Advent season to help you rediscover your childlike wonder and contemplate the sacred gift we celebrate in the Christmas season. From bestselling author Tsh Oxenreider, Shadow and Light is a rich yet approachable experience that invites you to explore the historical meaning of Advent. Drawing from liturgical tradition, Tsh provides fresh insights for new and longtime believers alike. Each day includes Scripture, a reflection, a question, and a simple activity to engage the senses, such as lighting candles, listening to music, and viewing artwork both old and new. Let yourself break away from the hustle and bustle of crafts, cookies, and Christmas parties, and receive your invitation to remember the quiet focus of our celebration. Shadow and Light will help you reclaim the holiday season as a time to remember Jesus's first coming, and to long for his one-day return. Bestselling author Tsh Oxenreider longed for something simple and quick, so she created Shadow and Light, a beautifully illustrated, scripturally based Advent devotional filled with music, art, and action activities to enjoy with your family. Tsh Oxenreider is a bestselling author, as well as travel guide, teacher, and top-ranked podcaster. After founding the long-running online community The Art of Simple, she now publishes her popular newsletter, Books and Crannies. Tsh and her family have traveled the world and lived all over, but are currently happy to call Central Texas home
