Description - Christmas Wishes: Seven Reflections on the Christmas Story by Karen Beaumont
The Christmas season is a natural time for reflection-on the past year, on time with family and friends, and especially on the miracle of Christ's birth. The story of the infant Jesus, from his extraordinary conception to his humble first bed in a manger, is full of details to make you wonder. Who, exactly, was Joseph, and why was he chosen for Mary? Was it really such a "silent" night? And what does it mean to be perfect in an imperfect world? Organist Karen Beaumont reflects on these questions and more in her collection of Christmas essays. This quick and engaging book encourages readers to let go of the cynicism that can creep up on even the most faithful among us and think about all the perfect moments in the Christmas narrative that led to the miracle of the birth of Jesus. It's easy to get caught up in the challenges of day-to-day life. We can always use help thinking beyond our own situations. With unique insight from her decades of providing the music that accompanies the most joyous of seasons, Beaumont gives us the perfect starting place for diving into the mysteries of Christmas and a path to bringing the true Christmas spirit into our daily reality.
