the Mirrors of Manger: Recognizing Oneself in Characters Nativity

The Nativity Scene is not just a tradition or an image from the past. It is an inner mirror. Through the Nativity stories, we meet men and women who look like us. Their doubts, expectations, and fears are ours. In this book, you will meet the silence of Zechariah, the worry of the magi, the simplicity of the shepherds, or the resistance of Herod. Each character is a chance to check your own heart and your relationship with God. After having studied the mirrors of Calvary, the author invites us here to visit the places and symbols of Christ's birth. Fed by the thoughts of the Church Fathers and modern theologians, these meditations are a call to act and to change. A spiritual journey open to all to learn to recognize God's presence in the humility of our own daily life.
