Advent{ures}:Let’s Go to Bethlehem
When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.” Luke 2:15 NIV
“Let’s go,” a simple invitation with immediacy attached. The address implies that another is included. It’s not a solitary imperative, but an inclusive one. As I embark on this advent{ure}, I desire companionship. I want someone to come along with me to discover the wonders of this season afresh. So, I invite you.
Most pilgrims have a destination, which we have. We’re going to Bethlehem. This time there’s no star leading us. No angelic choir proclaiming a birth, while we watch sheep by night. Our guide will be other companions. Ancient texts revered over time reveal the back story of this little town. Other authors, thinkers and crafters of ideas and words will light our path. And I hope to shed some light with my own musings.
Here’s a short list of companions that were introduced to me by other readers and by searching the annals of amazon:
1. The Holy Bible (ESV or other versions as they serve the purpose of this journey)
