Sure the Christmas season is still in our rearview mirror, but who doesn’t love a reason to dip our toes into the next Advent and Christmas season a little early? Okay, a lot early. My new book of seasonal Scripture reflections is now available for pre-order from Liturgical Press. Waiting in Joyful Hope: Daily Reflections for Advent & Christmas 2025-2026 is my seventh book of seasonal reflections and my favorite writing work these days. Every season brings with it new insights and old favorites. Even if you don’t pre-order today, I hope you’ll make a note to come back and purchase this one when we are closer to the season.
Here’s the description of the book, which is available in pocket size, large print, e-book, and bulk shipments:
Prepare for the celebration of Christ’s coming with this popular and inviting annual guide. During the especially busy Advent and Christmas seasons, this book offers brief, down-to-earth reflections that bring prayer and Scripture into everyday life in a thought-provoking and lasting way. Through Mary DeTurris Poust’s reflections on lectionary readings from the weekday and Sunday Masses, readers will grow in their understanding of the word of God. This book will help busy people enrich their prayer life during the seasons of Advent and Christmas.
Pre-order HERE. Thank you!
