These meditations are inspiring reflections on the mystery of Christmas. The author approaches the mystery of Christmas from several, converging perspectives. As usual, talk of one mystery of the Christian faith involves talk about them all, and that talk is never far away from talk about the depths of human existence. A happy combination of the best "theological Rahner" and the "spiritual Rahner", this book offers solid insight into the basis of our hope and the source and object of our love.
