Biografisk notat
Chris Wright is International Ministries Director of the Langham Partnership International. Previously he taught at Union Biblical Seminary in India, and was Academic Dean and then Principal of All Nations Christian College, UK. He travels widely, is married to Liz (also from Northern Ireland), and they live in London. His 30+ years of friendship with John Stott he describes as 'a delightful privilege for which I am immensely grateful to God'. He worked with several of the organizations that Stott founded, and was invited by him in 2001 to take over the leadership of the LPI (known in the US as John Stott Ministries).'In Rejoice! Chris Wright explores the theme of the coming of God throughout the Scriptures to illuminate the coming of Christ at Christmas and to raise our expectations of his coming in glory at the climax of history. What we discover along the way are not simply some lessons from the Bible story that apply to our lives, but that our lives only really make sense as part of the Bible story. Read this book and have your mind expanded and your heart warmed. Read it and rejoice!'

'Written with deceptive simplicity, these devotions show the heart-rendingly beautiful character of a God who comes to his children - again and again and again. They show that Advent is not just for Christmas, but from before time and beyond it. These readings will draw you deeper into the Bible's big story so that your heart rejoices in a good God who comes to us and draws us close so that we can enjoy him forever.'
- Mark Ellis, Director of CU Ireland,
