Thank you, Cindy Rollins, for adding to my love for Hansel’s Messiah. “He shall surely come” is my favorite refrain of hope!
The book is set up so each night you listen to a portion of the Messiah. I have never understood or liked operatic music, but with this book the author writes out the words they’re singing so you can read along and actually understand the words being sung -which is all portions of scripture. It gave a whole new deep and rich meaning to it all. Plus it caused us to actually pause and reflect on the meaning of the season.
The author has lots of detailed explanations and activities, and even recipes you can do and follow if you want. Or you can just keep it simple and only follow the readings for the scripture and song each night. I will be using this each December from now on. It deeply touched me.
The additional resources truly round out the book. I gleaned fantastic ideas for making advent and Christmas meaningful for my family, and I enjoyed the hymn of the week, poems, essays, and Scripture memory suggestions.
It’s definitely worth the purchase! I’m looking forward to using it with my children for many years. We love it so much we are going to gift a copy to my husband’s parents for Christmas.

There is enough content in this book to revisit at least several times to develop a deeper understanding of the music and poems offered here, if not every Advent. For deeper study, you could revisit the Latin hymns for language learning in later years, you could focus on one recipe a year to supplement your traditional family recipes, you could try picking out phrases from the Messiah on an instrument. Or you could simply adopt the schedule into your days of advent without fanfare and let them become part of your family traditions.
