The season of Advent, the beginning of the liturgical year, begins on Sunday and I am once again hosting an Advent series on my blog. The focus for the season is Jesus is Near: How do We Draw Close. There are over 30 people signed up to contribute at this stage which means that there should be at least one post each day. But there is still time to contribute so please let me know if you are interested. Also please let others know about the series – tweet it, facebook it, share it on your blog too and above all have a blessed Advent
