This week I was excited to find out that a dear friend and her husband worked together on a Biblical Fiction account from Jesus’ mother, Mary, specifically for Advent. I’m thrilled to be part of the launch team for this new eBook, and look forward to hearing what y’all have to say after you read it yourselves!
Andrew Bowen’s “The Passion of Mary“, was created as an Advent study to prepare our hearts for the celebration of Jesus’ birth. He weaves Scripture throughout an artistically driven Christmas story account that is beautifully written.
Throughout the scripture we often wonder what Mary or Joseph might have been thinking throughout the midst of the Christmas story. Andrew follows the Biblical account of Mary, Joseph and Jesus while creating a story and picture of all that might have been going on in between what Matthew and Luke wrote for us in the Bible.
The Passion of Mary is a 14 day Advent study, and at the conclusion of each chapter you’ll find a short reflection. Here Andrew takes the time to reflect on the Biblical account and reveals a bit more of what his thoughts are on what he has written for that day. I loved how each day’s reflections tie everything together, pointing us more and more to Christ.
I greatly encourage you to swing by and grab a copy of this new book for Advent. Since it is only a 2 week Advent study, you have plenty of time to read this book before Christmas! I truly hope you’ll take the time to read this book and ensure your focus is on Christ this Christmas! Don’t miss the opportunity to read something new this Christmas season, that will leave a lasting impression on your heart. Take a trip with Mary and Joseph, and allow Christ to become the focus of your heart this Christmas.
If you would like to take a chance at winning a copy of this book, enter below using the rafflecopter entry form. The winner will be selected on the 12th, exactly 2 weeks before Christmas! So that the winner will have exactly enough time to complete the study for Christmas.
