Best-selling Adrian Plass brings you this beautifully illustrated gift book. This moving story about a long-awaited visitor to a present-day church is illustrated in full colour by Ben Ecclestone, and is a wonderful reminder of the purpose of Christ's visit 2000 years ago. The visit doesn't go at all as expected -- for a start, the visitor takes the church to the pub and gives away his clothes to the down and out. The man chosen to organise the visit finds it more than disturbing: In fact the visitor's reluctance to go with the respectable way of doing things brings him almost to a breakdown. What does this man expect from him? Our organiser has much to learn; or maybe it's us who have more to learn than we'd care to admit?
