Reformation of the Heart: Seasonal Meditations by a Gay Christian

Chris Glaser. Westminster John Knox Press, $19.95 (232pp) ISBN 978-0-664-22306-9

While it occurs near the close of the calendar year, Advent marks the commencement of the liturgical one, beginning the Christian calendar afresh with its weeks of hushed expectation. In Reformation of the Heart: Seasonal Meditations of a Gay Christian, Chris Glaser challenges readers to emulate Mary, who prayed, ""Let it be with me according to your Word."" Glaser's honest daily meditations will help many gay and lesbian Christians understand the Advent season (and other liturgical events) in fresh and comforting ways. (Sept.)
