Poetic reflections for Advent,
By
This review is from: Fathoming Bethlehem: Advent Meditations (Hardcover)
This is a day-by-day companion for Advent. The texts for each day begin with a note giving the biblical reference of the Gospel reading for the day according to the Lectionary, followed by Bishop Morneau's brief commentary and a meditative refrain that summarises the Gospel theme, taken from the Divine Office. What distinguishes the volume is the provision of a suitable poem for each day, which is accompanied by a meditation by Morneau and questions for reflection. Among the poems included are works by Rainer Maria Rilke, Emily Dickinson, George Herbert, T. S. Eliot, Jessica Powers and Morneau himself. Each day's entry concludes with a text for morning prayer. 'Fathoming Bethlehem' is an invitation to be re-enchanted with the joyous mystery of Christmas.
