In all of its spiritual depth, Christmas is the most hardest season to absorb and comprehend. The season's emotions and commercialism tend to hide the great mystery at its heart: the Incarnation. God with Us is the ideal approach to slow down and reconnect with Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany liturgical and sacramental traditions. Some of today's most eminent spiritual authors present a tapestry of contemplation, Scripture, prayer, and history in this anthology of daily reflections.
Beth Bevis, Scott Cairns, Emilie Griffin, Richard John Neuhaus, Kathleen Norris, Eugene Peterson, and Luci Shaw are among others who have contributed.
"The birth of Jesus, kept fresh in our imaginations and prayers in song and story, keeps our feet on solid ground and responsive to every nuance of obedience and praise evoked by the life all around us."
-Eugene Peterson, from the Introduction
