Glad and Golden Hours: A Companion for Advent and Christmastide by Lanier Iveste

Description: Glad and Golden Hours by Lanier Ivester, Jennifer Trafton This companion for Advent and Christmastide is a guide to celebrating the season through a narrative of renewal and its attendant cavalcade of recipes and craft ideas, all exquisitely written by Lanier Ivester and lavishly illustrated by Jennifer Trafton. FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Tangible acts of feasting and celebrating have suffused Lanier Ivesters home all her life. But alongside her love of festivity, shes wrestled with profound losses that have reshaped the landscape--both around her and within her. These coexisting forces of great grief and great joy come together in a place called the Ruff House, where Ivesters story (lavishly illustrated by Jennifer Trafton) not only reminds us of the inescapable presence of sorrow, but shows us how to celebrate and anticipate the return of glad and golden hours in the midst of it. Like Robert Farrar Capons Supper of the Lamb, this is a book that defies the trappings of a mere cookbook or a collection of craft projects. Its an embodiment of a rich theology of Creation, of what it means to be human when everything is both falling apart and coming back together. At its heart, Glad & Golden Hours is a companion that will lead you through the seasons of Advent and Christmastide, illuminating the deep reality of the Kingship of Christ and our invitation into the richness of the Feast to come. Glad and Golden Hours Features: - Over 70 recipes and crafts - Over 200 illustrations by Jennifer Trafton - Beautiful hardcover gift book - Silk bookmark Author Biography Lanier Ivester is a homemaker and writer in the beautiful state of Georgia, where she maintains a small farm with her husband, Philip, and an ever-expanding menagerie of cats, dogs, sheep, goats, chickens, ducks, and peacocks. She studied English Literature at the University of Oxford, and her special areas of interest include the intersection of Christianity and art, the sacramental nature of everyday life, and the truth-bearing witness of the imagination. For over a decade she has kept a web journal at lanierivester.com, and her work has also been featured on The Rabbit Room, Art House America, The Gospel Coalition, and The Cultivating Project, among others. She has lectured across the country on topics ranging from the meaning of home to the integration of faith and reason, and in both her writing and her speaking she seeks to honor the holy longings of a homesick world.

Her first novel, The Rise and Fall of Mount Majestic, received starred reviews in Publishers Weekly and School Library Journal and was a nominee for Tennessees Volunteer State Book Award and the National Homeschool Book Award.
