The liturgical year, beginning on the First Sunday of Advent and carrying through the following November is the year that sets out to attune the life of the Christian to the life of Jesus Christ. This book addresses what may simply appear as an arbitrary arrangement of ancient holy days or liturgical seasons and clarifies their essential relationship to one another as well as their ongoing meaning to us today. It is an excursion into life from the Christian perspective, from the viewpoint of those who set out not only to follow Jesus but to live as Jesus lived and to think as Jesus thought.
