Title: Until He Comes
First published: 1972
Description: Advent stands somewhere between the two comings of Christ. Its joyful celebration reflects the meaning of Christian living as it enables us to share in the salvific coming of Christ in history so that his future coming may one day be a reality. The liturgical readings from the Old Testament help us develop a spirit of longing and expectation, while the gospels gradually unfold the meaning of his incarnation and life among us: With faith in the gift of his saving mysteries we can work with hope toward the day of his final coming as we live our lives of Christian love. This book, with its commentaries and reflections on each of the lessons and gospels, should serve as an inspiration to many in their meditations as well as an aid to the Advent preacher.
