Humbug and happiness - Sheila Jacobs

Humbug and Happiness is an original Advent course based on the classic Christmas movie A Christmas Carol (released as Scrooge in the UK) starring Alastair Sim. In four weekly study sessions, structured around key scenes from the film, it explores the following themes: The Chains of Life - living through difficult times and personal circumstances; In the Past - things from the past that hold us back today; Living Now - being aware of God's call for us in the present; Future . Perfect? - understanding God's plan for our whole life: yesterday, today and tomorrow.Each session includes timing references for watching scenes from the movie on a DVD, and questions for private reflection or in groups, with activities and suggested prayers.
