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.
As with previous Advent York Courses, the standard study book is supported by an in-depth interview, covering all 4 sessions, between Robert Warren and Simon Stanley, available on CD, as a Digital Download or as a transcript in either paperback or eBook.
Session 1: Luke's reporting of the coming of Christ
Session 1: John's reflections on the coming of Christ

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 on LIVING IN THE LIGHT
The York Courses format is tried and tested . . . Leading us in theology and ecclesiology are a mix of activist and academic, also ecumenical [contributors]. The sessions are scholarly but not inaccessible . . . a clear outline of "environmental justice" . . . An ideal resource for individuals or groups. - New Directions on CARING FOR CREATION
One health warning: avoid this course if the Psalms hardly feature in your acts of worship, because anyone completing it will be an enthusiast for their wider and more central use. - Church Times on THE PSALMS
