Description
The meditations in this collection are meant solely to prepare us to meet Christ anew. They are written by three seekers who struggled hard and long to find, in the words of Soren Kierkegaard, the contemporary Christ. They witness to the fact that the birth of Jesus is more than history - it is a reality - but only for those who feel their need and are personally ready to come to the manger. A revised and expanded edition of an old favourite, the 40 short pithy readings in this book will not leave you sitting comfortably this Christmas.
