Today, I start reading Honest Advent by Scott Erickson. It is a collection of twenty-five devotions for Advent, accompanied by original art illustrations. I'm excited for these devotions, as they feel fresh and inviting, focusing upon Mary and some of the feminine aspects of the biblical stories surrounding the birth of Christ—the Annunciation, Mary's pregnancy, the physicality of birth. The art and devotions are very engaging and I'm looking forward to hearing these familiar texts with a new perspective.
