Curious Commercials: And Other Reflections on Christmas

Author: Daniel J. Weitner

The nativity is more than a warm and fuzzy feeling of longing for universal peace that envelops the earth around the end of the year.

In trenchant messages that are liberally sprinkled with contemporary illustrations, Daniel Weitner reminds us that to know what Christmas is all about, we don’t need to look outside Bethlehem… beyond the manger… or past the baby Jesus. Instead we should focus on the birth of Jesus the redeemer — it is the wonderful event!
