Joyful Christianity is a fresh, engaging look at the Christmas story from the Gospel of Luke.

Cally Hammond invites the reader of Joyful Christianity to experience afresh the events before, during and after Jesus’ birth. These events (the annunciation, the visitation, the nativity, the presentation in the Temple, and the finding in the Temple) will help to make the nativity story your own this Advent, and would make perfect reading for groups or individuals.

In Joyful Christianity, Cally Hammond leads us to discover new depths of meaning, to develop a deeper commitment to our faith, and to meet the challenges of life with joyful Christianity.

The Revd Dr Cally Hammond is the Dean of Gonville & Caius College, Cambridge. She previously worked in rural praishes of Ely and is the author of Passionate Christianity (SPCK, 2007).
