Product description

The Christmas Story is held by many to be an embarrassing legend that diminishes the credibility of the rest of the New Testament. Scholars are almost all dismissive of it. The notionally supportive accounts in Christian books are skimpy and amount either to mere assertions or to an acknowledgement that the traditional story is an apologist's nightmare. Yet there is a lot to be said in its support. And it is worth saying. It can only be said coherently if you come afresh to the gospels, taking seriously the real historical and archaeological objections. The story that emerges is strange - but compelling. Christmas happened: the world was changed. How does it change your world?
