The Addiction Connection has released Advent: Meditations for Addicts, available in print and ebook.
Dr. Mark E. Shaw and ShirIey Crowder pray the Lord will be pleased to use Advent: Meditations for Addicts, a meditative journey through Advent, to help you keep your heart and mind focused on Christ in the weeks leading up to Christmas.
The purpose of “Advent: Meditations for Addicts” is to encourage you to be intentional in reflecting upon the incredible love of God expressed in the Advent of Jesus.
The guide begins 5 Sundays (weeks) before Christmas and walks you through the week after Christmas. The chapters use the five candles of Advent to walk you through your celebration. They are entitled: Celebrate Advent, Hope in God, The Peace of God, The Joy of the Lord, God’s Boundless Love, Christ Has Come!, and His Glorious Return. While we wrote this Advent guide specifically to help addicts, and those whom God has transformed from an addiction-dominated life, every Christ-follower can ensure his or her relationship with God stays strong during Advent by using this guide to keep Christ the focus of Christmas.
