Description
How might a house look for Christmas based on what each Gospel says about it? In Christmas in the Four Gospel Homes, beautiful illustrations from architect Kevin Burns reimagine each of the four Gospels as a “house,” which the church visits at Christmas. In each section, Cynthia M. Campbell reflects on the distinctive perspective of the birth of Jesus or the incarnation offered by each Gospel. Suitable for individual or group study, Christmas in the Four Gospel Homes creatively reimagines the season and inspires new and exciting reflection for Advent.
“Cynthia Campbell strikes a beautiful balance between astute scholarship and elegant prose in Christmas in the Four Gospel Homes, which examines each of the Gospel accounts of Jesus’ birth.”
—The Christian Century
“Cynthia Campbell takes a very creative approach, imagining each Gospel as a house. In doing so, she invites to imagine in fresh ways the season of the coming of our Lord.”
—Presbyterian Outlook
“This was a lovely little book to read during Advent and for visual learners like myself, imagining the gospel narratives as distinct homes has helped to bring the Christ story to life in a whole new way for me.”
—Alisa Williams, Spectrum Magazine
