Joy To The World

Description

PRAISE FOR Joy to the World
“There are many reasons that we love the celebration of Christmas, but two stand out: it is a time for joy and it is a time for family. We rejoice in the birth of Jesus Christ and the salvation He came to bring us, and we take time to be with our families during this special season. In this wonderful book, Scott Hahn beautifully explains that the Christmas story is foremost a family story. You will learn about the deep Scriptural meaning of the Nativity of Jesus Christ and come to more fully appreciate the unique role played by the figures we know so well from the Gospels accounts. From Mary and Joseph to the Magi and shepherds, this book will help you discover anew the joy of Christmas! – CARDINAL TIMOTHY M. DOLAN, ARCHBISHOP OF NEW YORK

“Scott Hahn crosses ‘boundaries’ that are sometimes used to separate history from Scripture and both from doctrine in order to give us a more adequate grasp of the boundaries God has crossed in the mystery of the Incarnation. This book is a joy to read and to ponder.”
-FRANCIS CARDINAL GEORGE, O.M.I., ARCHBISHOP OF CHICAGO AND AUTHOR OF God in Action

“Let Christmas come alive this year! With the help of his daughter, Hannah, who accompanied him to Bethlehem, Scott Hahn sees beyond the category of ‘only for children’ storytelling to provide a narrative for people of all ages about the day the Word became flesh— the birth of Jesus. Joy to the World: How Christ’s Coming Changed Everything (and Still Does) is great Christmas reading. especially for families.” -MOST REVEREND JOSEPH E. KURTZ, D.D., ARCHBISHOP OF LOUISVILLE AND PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES CONFERENCE OF CATHOLIC BISHOPS
