"Our entire lives are a vigil, a keeping watch, for the fulfillment of our hope. But it is especially in this season, the season of the coming, that we rise on tiptoes to dance. We open our throats to sing and to proclaim this vigil that we keep."
Watch a child's eyes light up when seeing the lights that go up in the first days of December. There's definitely something magical about the season, and it goes beyond the bright sparkling bulbs. It's about expectancy and hope and mystery and wonder.
The Vigil will help you enter more prayerfully into the seasons of Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany. Mixing classical, contemporary, and personal stories, Wright's narrative will reawaken the wonder of the waiting.
In captivating, lyrical prose, Wright weaves together threads of the liturgical calendar, traditional Christmas themes, and scripture.
A thought-provoking study for small groups or a delightful gift for those with whom we share the waiting and the watching in the season of hope, The Vigil is a blessed companion in the seasons.
