Shadow and Light: A Journey Into Advent by Tsh Oxenreider

Has there been another year in recent memory in which we’ve so collectively felt the groaning of a broken world and longed for things to be made new? This book by Tsh Oxenreider is my suggestion to guide you through this season. Maybe you’ve been observing advent for decades, or maybe you’re not really sure what you believe, but you’re curious about how Jesus can both enter into brokenness and bring hope. Either way, or anywhere in between, this book will be a gentle guide through the season. It’s stunning and it’s simple. This isn’t something to add to your to-do list - it’s an invitation. Each day includes a short meditation, a Psalm to pray, a question for reflection, and a piece of art and music to look up. Do all of that or some, do every day or skip some. Regardless, if you’re feeling weary and don’t want to add one more thing, but still want to engage with the story of Jesus coming into our pain, may I recommend this one?
