Paraclete Press Presents God With Us: Rediscovering the Meaning of Christmas

Purchase God With Us

Christmas is the season most difficult to grasp and understand in all its spiritual richness. The sentimentality and commercialism that dominate the season tend to obscure the profound mystery at its heart: the Incarnation. God With Us provides the perfect way to slow down and reconnect with the litugical and sacramental traditions that illuminate the meaning of the Incarnation and bring it down to earth.Featuring daily meditations for the complete seasons of Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany, contributors Scott Cairns, Emilie Griffin, Richard John Neuhaus, Kathleen Norris, Eugene Peterson, and Luci Shaw offer a tapestry of reflection, Scripture, prayer and history. These profound words are enhanced by classic and contemporary art masterpieces carefully selected by the editors. God With Us will make anyone's journey to the stable in Bethlehem and the child in the manger utterly unforgettable.

God With Us: Rediscovering the Meaning of Christmas - Daily Subscription

Each morning, take time to experience the richness of Advent.

When we become adults, and the wide-eyed wonder of childhood has passed, we need to replace what was once magical with something much more meaningful.

Now is the time to put first things first, and seek silence, if only for a few precious minutes a day. Now, ever more intently, we are to watch and listen for God.
The subscription edition of God With Us: Rediscovering the Meaning of Christmas begins on Tuesday, November 27 (five days before the first Sunday in Advent), lasts for 42 days, and ends on Monday, January 7, 2008. Occasionally, you will receive more than one email of inspirational and instructional material for that day. Your subscription will begin with a brief introduction on November 27, followed by a series of daily reflections from bestselling author Eugene Peterson, preparing you for the Advent season to come.
