Advent in Plain Sight | Virtual Lunchtime Book Talk

  • Theological Horizons 1841 University Circle Charlottesville, VA 22903 (map)

Join us for a virtual lunchtime book talk with Rev. Jill Duffield, author of Advent In Plain Sight: A Devotion Through Ten Objects.

About the book: At Christmas, God came into our ordinary world in the form of a child, and still today, God is at work through the ordinary stuff of life, if we train our eyes to see. Advent in Plain Sight draws readers’ attention to ten ordinary objects that appear in the biblical narratives of messianic prophesy and incarnation. Through focusing on these objects, we can see the near kingdom of heaven on earth and ponder what that divine proximity enables and asks us to do and be.
