Meditations Of Christmas

Book Summary

Meditations of Christmas is a compact treasure trove of Christmas gems. This is a unique book of devotionals, poems and music that all center around the majesty and mystery of the Christmas story. Originally presented as several radio broadcasts, each devotional takes some facet of the Christmas story and reexamines it with the insights that reawaken the truths that center around the child, the Saviour, who came in human flesh to provide salvation for us all. While the Christ child is certainly the centerpiece of the story, Dr. Dautel carefully examines the deity of our Lord, the importance of Mary, the significance of the wise men and the star, the peace and great joy of Christ's birth, the angel's pronouncement and the meaning of Bethlehem. The Christmas songs and choruses were written by the author who exhibited a special ability for over fifty years of powerfully presenting the gospel story through the written word, the spoken word and music. The beautiful and heartfelt poems written by the author's wife, Marian, add the final touches to each gem by portraying vivid pictures in the mind's eye--from the feelings of the inn-keeper to the angel's message to lowly shepherds to the fulfillment of the Messiah as prophet, priest and king. Nowhere else will you find a book that ties together the heartwarming reflections of the Christmas season as this one. God's gift to us, his Son, is truly revealed to us.
