Song of Old: An Advent Calendar for the Spirit, is an adaptation of traditional Advent calendars, with short reflective passages serving as the 24 'treats' that countdown the days to Christmas. Each is written from the viewpoint of someone who lived during the time of Christ's birth, including such familiar characters as the Magi, the young apostle Peter, Simeon, the shepherds, King Herod, Nicodemus and the infant John the Baptist among others. The narratives cover the sweeping range of emotions associated with the holiday and together comprise a meaningful and momentous journey to Christmas morning.
