This book is an attempt to defamiliarize the Christmas stories found in the Bible. Familiarity can result in a diminishment of wonder at the astounding news that God was manifest as a baby in a manger and that the event was announced by angels. The Christmas story is not about something that happened once. It has profound implications for understanding our own divine origin and task. That is why letting oneself be drawn into the stories as if for the first time can work wonders. Enterand see.
