Living in the Light (Course Booklet) (York Courses Series)

This 4-session course is just right for the 4 weeks of Advent - but suitable for any time of year.  
  
Comprising course booklet, audio and transcript  
  
"*Faithful, feisty, pragmatic, and unfailingly pastoral, Warren explores the depths with a light and humble touch, prompted by Stanley's gentle and skilful questions ... With additional comments from four people in the pews, the four-part course gathers such momentum that by the third session, nearly every line hits home.*" (Church Times review)  
  
Witnesses to a single event often give contrasting reports. When the event is God's coming to this world as a child it is not just fascinating, it is highly instructive. It opens our eyes not only to what God is like, but to how life can be lived to the full. This course explores the 'reports' of Luke, John, Mary and Paul. In doing so it engages with the distinctive nature of Christian spirituality and how we can give expression to it in our lives, thus living the light of Christ's coming.  
  
Four Sessions:  
  
Session (1) Luke's reporting of the coming of Christ  
  
Session (2) John's reflections on the coming of Christ  
  
Session (3) Mary's response to the coming of Christ  
  
Session (4) Paul rejoices in the coming of Christ  
  
The course booklet, written by Canon Robert Warren, includes questions aimed at provoking wide-ranging discussion. Each group needs a copy of the course audio, and ideally a course booklet for each member. In addition many groups find the transcript booklet, which cross-references to the tracks on the recorded material, invaluable.
