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.
