Preparing the Way

Book excerpt: Preparing the Way offers the opportunity and challenge to journey toward Bethlehem and the manger by exploring the Revised Common Lectionary readings designated for this Advent season. As she guides us through the lectionary texts of Advent 2012 in Preparing the Way, Sue Mink inspires us to claim for ourselves the call to prepare our hearts, our minds, and our lives for the coming of Jesus Christ in his birth and in his second coming. First time! The Leader Guide, written by Nan Duerling, is combined with the Student Book allowing more flexibility for leading the study. The Leader Guide gives help to leaders for Sunday School Classes or other small groups by providing the same great materials you've come to know and depend on when preparing to lead your class or group.
