Salt of the Earth: A Christian Seasons Calendar 2009/2010 is now available
Placed in the home and office the Christian Seasons Calendar is a distinctive reminder of the Christian way of life. Given as a gift at baptisms, confirmations and weddings it encourages lives that are lived in God’s time. Christian educators find the Christian Seasons Calendar to be a valuable teaching resource with children and families.
This unique calendar opens with Advent. It does not begin with January 1 nor does it turn with the twelve months. Instead, its pages mark the celebrations of Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, Holy Week, Easter & Pentecost. The Christian Seasons Calendar tells the story of the gospel through the narrative of scripture and the imagery of art. Keeping time through the Christian Year in this way offers a distinctive means of remembering, and living in, the story of Jesus Christ.
In “A People’s History of Christianity” author Diana Butler Bass describes how the ancient Christian practice of hallowing time is taking a new form in this innovative calendar. Emerging from the missional life of University Hill Congregation in Vancouver, Canada the 2009/2010 edition features the work of ten contemporary Christian artists from Canada, the United Kingdom & the United States.
