Book review — The One True Light

Book: The One True LightAuthor: Tim ChesterPublisher: The Good Book CompanyRetail Price: £6.99 (buy now)
Review by Nichola Napper1 minute readNovember/December 2020, page 28

The One True Light

This book takes the reader through John chapter 1:1-18, taking part of a verse each day and opening it up. The author weaves the Old Testament and New Testament together and really encourages you to meditate on who Jesus is. Unlike other advent devotionals, this has no stable, star or shepherds, but as the author says, ‘the focus is entirely upon Jesus, the God-became-man.’ Each day’s devotion is a few pages long, with titles such as ‘Light’, ‘Life’, ‘The way home’ and ‘The altogether lovely’. The chapter ends with a meditation which is usually a verse from a carol and a prayer.
