Watch for the Light
This is an excellent devotional for Advent. I found it in the bookstore of the National Cathedral in Washington, DC. The noted Christian (and some secular) thinkers from across the centuries take the devotional reader beyond the surface traditions and »candles« of Advent to new places of meditation and thought centering upon the mystery and awe of the birth of Christ. As I followed the readings day by day, I was so inspired I immediately purchased (via Amazon) two more copies for friends as Christmas gifts, so that next year they might enjoy and be inspired by the journey to Bethlehem. If you are a thinker and want to hear from great minds (as well as an occasional poem or two-even a submission from the likes of Sylvia Plath!)and want to go further in your personal understanding of Advent and the mysteries and truth of God's greatest act of love, I would highly recommend this devotional to you.

An Advent Must
Good reading from a variety of excellent, trusted writers … Nouwen, Bonhoeffer, Manning, etc. all offer reflections on the Advent/Christmas season that will make you go deeper … Personally, I struggle with reading during this time of year due to busy schedule but I have found this daily digest a perfect way to enhance my Advent season of waiting …

Calm in the craziness 
This is a lovely book with simple, thoughtful passages for the days leading up to Christmas. The passages evoke feelings of centeredness, peace and calm similar to awakening to a beautiful, fresh snowfall.
