Publisher Description:

Have you wondered about the origins of the Christmas pickle? Or how we got from the manger in a cave/stable to giant plaster nativity scenes? Did you ever try to explain to someone what Christmas might actually be about under all that hype, marketing and expense? Then this little book of daily readings is just right for your Advent (the 24 days leading up to Christmas) season. You’ll laugh a bit, shake your head at the monsters, enjoy the family recipes and favorite carols in the appendix, but mostly you’ll find some peace, some down time, a little oasis of serenity and comfort in all the rushing endemic to this season. You might just find the true meaning of Christmas for yourself and your loved ones, before it’s all lost in the fancy paper, online shopping and overextending of time and money. God bless you as you discover what your Christmas has been missing.
