Christmas is not a mystery. People understand Christmas. Who can deny the beauty, simplicity, and gracefulness of the season of the year in which there are lights on the lawns of houses, gifts given and received, and the story of the birth of the Christ Child remembered with readings and reenactments? Essentially, Christmas is a response to a longing for something holy and sacred. The deeper meaning of Christmas promotes the idea that there is something greater than ourselves stirring in our hearts and minds, and the God-likeness is evident in the most unusual places. This book attempts to identify some of those places where the Holy-Other is Wholly inner. Suggesting that it happened in Bethlehem a long time ago is conveying the idea that if it happened there and then, it can happen here and now. This book offers an invitation to look at the secular world and find the sacred within it. It encourages us to look into the lights of Christmas as they confront the darkness and to find the source of that light beyond and within us.
