These collected poems reflect an unwavering faith in the mystery of the incarnation - the unchanging humanity and divinity of Jesus. Contrary to most Christmas narratives with the beautiful nativity scenes, the birth of a baby is a bloody mess. Jesus’ birth was no exception. The baby of Christmas is a human being that stepped into the most unlikely place at a most unlikely time. Jesus’ birth took place in unsanitary conditions and resulted in a refugee flight to Egypt while a self-absorbed tyrant slaughtered babies out of fear. Sherrie Morrison captures both the human and the divine nature of Christmas in her years of defining the nativity through poetry. Come with her now and meet the Christ of Christmas at such an unlikely place and time as this.
