Glad And Golden Hours
$35.00
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.
Tangible acts of feasting and celebrating have suffused Lanier Ivester’s home all her life. But alongside her love of festivity, she’s 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 Ivester’s 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 Capon’s Supper of the Lamb, this is a book that defies the trappings of a mere cookbook or a collection of craft projects. It’s 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.

Love is at the heart of Christmas-it’s the reason behind all our gathering and gift-giving at this time of year. In this Advent devotional, Dr Sinclair B Ferguson refreshes our hearts as we reflect on the source it all-love incarnate, Jesus Christ.Over the course of December, this devotional walks through 1 Corinthians 13 phrase-by-phrase, showing us that “love is” the Lord Jesus himself.
Sinclair Ferguson brings the rich theology of the incarnation to life with his trademark warmth and clarity. Drawing on stories from the Gospels, we’ll see what “love” looked like in the life of Christ, and be challenged us to love like him. Each day’s reading finishes with a question for reflection and a prayer.
However you’re feeling-weary or frantic, lonely or lovesick-your heart will be refreshed as you wonder again at the truth that love came down at Christmas in the person of Jesus Christ.
