Author: Rutledge, Fleming

Condition: New

Advent, says Fleming Rutledge, is not for the faint of heart. As the midnight of the Christian year, the season of Advent is rife with dark, gritty realities. In this book, with her trademark wit and wisdom, Rutledge explores Advent as a time of rich paradoxes, a season celebrating at once Christs incarnation and his second coming, and she masterfully unfolds the ethical and future-oriented significance of Advent for the church.
