This Advent, a Book of Days to nourish and inspire your soul

Gregory Kenneth Cameron welcomes you to a daily feast for the eyes and the spirit from December 1 to December 25. Rich thoughts on the character of the day – Gabriel, the Virgin Mary, the Star, the Magi, and, of course, the Christ Child – are linked with stunning pictures by the author, taken from famous works of art. Enter the tradition of visio divina, which was inspired by the mediaeval tradition of the illuminated book of hours, and celebrate the numerous facets and characters of the Christmas tale throughout the years.

“It is my hope that these reflections, whenever they are read, will help us to discover new depths in the Christmas story, to deepen our faith, and perhaps even to learn something new or unexpected; because over two thousand years, the story of Christmas has become filled with unexpected delights arising from Scripture, history, legend and faith.” —Gregory Kenneth Cameron
