With Libri GmbH With Us Paperback 62 Pages

With Us is an illustrated Advent devotional tracing the promise of Emmanuel from creation to Bethlehem.Across twenty-four daily readings and a Christmas Day reflection, Scripture's familiar stories become part of one unfolding movement: God drawing near. From Eden, Abraham's stars, and Israel's wilderness to prophets, outsiders, shepherds, and God sleeping in human arms, each reflection invites readers to recognize the promise carried through generations-the God who refuses to remain distant from creation.The book pairs poetic devotional prose with artwork first imagined for an Advent book during the author's childhood. Those surviving illustrations have been digitally remastered and joined by five newer pieces created in communion with the originals.Written for readers who know both hope and waiting, With Us does not ignore grief, uncertainty, or the places that appear beyond restoration. Instead, it looks closely for light entering darkness, life emerging from wounded ground, and the quiet signs that God is still making all things new.The promise of Advent remains: God is with us.
